Ingredients:
5 cups of organic old fashioned rolled oats
1/2 cup organic sunflower, grape seed or safflower oil
1/2 cup brown rice syrup
1/2 cup coconut palm sugar
1/4 cup water
1 Tablespoon pure organic vanilla extract
1 tsp. pure organic almond extract
2 tsp. organic ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp. pink salt
1 cup chopped organic walnuts
1/2 cup chopped or slivered organic raw almonds
1/2 to 3/4 cup organic raisins
1/2 cup organic dried cherries
1/2 cup organic dried cranberries
Raised edge cookie sheet, standard size
parchment paper, cut to size of cookie sheet
Directions:
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. In a very large bowl, using a heavy whisk, mix the oil, sugar, syrup and water together...this may initially be a thick messy concoction, but, keep whisking until it is smooth and silky. Add the extracts, salt and cinnamon and whisk until incorporated. Add in the oats and nuts, and coat the entire mixture, thoroughly.
Pour this onto the parchment paper-lined cookie sheet and press out, evenly. Place into your oven for 33- 40 minutes, turning the sheet around once (front to back) during baking. There's no need to stir, at all. If you have a hot oven, it'll be done in 33-34 minutes. Cool on a rack until you can handle the granola. Break it into small pieces (I use my hands) in a large bowl and then add your fruit mixture...do not bake the dried fruit as it will become very hard!
Store it in air tight containers in the refrigerator....it should last for 7-10 days...if your family doesn't devour it, first.
