Honey Granola Recipe Demonstration - Joyofbaking.com

Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).

Prepare a baking sheet with non-stick spray, or lightly butter or oil it.

In a large bowl, combine 3 cups of old-fashioned rolled oats, 1 cup of raw whole almonds, 1/2 cup of raw sunflower seeds, 1/2 cup of raw pumpkin seeds, 1/4 cup of flax seeds, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of ground cinnamon. Mix well.

In a saucepan, combine 1/4 cup of light brown sugar, 1/4 cup of water, and 1/4 cup of flavorless oil. You can also use melted butter for more flavor.

Add 1/2 cup of honey and 1/2 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract to the saucepan. Heat over medium heat until everything is melted and combined.

Pour the warm mixture over the oat mixture and stir until everything is well coated.

Spread the mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet.

Bake in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, stirring every 20 minutes to ensure even baking. Check for a deep golden brown color.

Once done, remove from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack before breaking it into pieces.
