HEALTHY & DELCIOUS: Stevie's Sweet & Salty Granola

My friend Stevie brought us homemade granola that Chris and I couldn't get enough of! Sweet and salty with cinnamon and vanilla... Her recipe is quick, easy, and uses minimal ingredients. I don't think we'll be eating store-bought granola again!


Things to Note:
- The recipe doubles perfectly-- both cookie sheets can bake at the same time. I switched oven racks after the initial 10 minutes of baking.
- Stevie said you can mix all kinds of things into the dry mix, such as dried fruit and nuts. I'd like to try dried cranberries and cherries next time, but the possibilities of combinations are endless :)

Method:

1. Mix oats, salt, and cinnamon.
2. In separate bowl stir together veggie oil, brown sugar, honey and vanilla.
3. Combine both mixtures together with hands....it should stick in clumps.
4. Spread on cookie sheet with parchment paper and bake at 300 degrees for 10 minutes.
5. Flip/stir it up. Continue baking for 13-15 more minutes (it will look a little golden).
