I am a huge fan of Lucinda. It seems like everything she creates taste fabulous and she did it once again with this recipe!
I did not have safflower oil so I used sunflower oil instead thinking that it was a close alternative. I love cinnamon so I added a teaspoon of Vietnamese cinnamon. I used dried apricots for my dried fruit.
I knew I would loved this recipe so I doubled it! So easy to make!!!!!

I was looking for a good granola recipe and I found it. I made it last week and the kids and I enjoyed it. I used sweetened coconut instead. Thank you for the wonderful receipe.

OMG! I love this granola! Actually, I think I'm addicted to it. I eat plain yogurt and granola often and found this recipe preferable to store brand granola. While baking in the oven, I used less time because I thought I was burning it (my oven runs hot anyway), so I recommend keeping a close eye on it. I replaced safflower oil with canola oil and it tastes great. If you love granola, I highly recommend this recipe. Granola's already running low-time to make more!

This was delicious! So easy to put together and keeps well in an airtight container. I also added some milled flax for an extra healthy boost. My kids love it. Will also try experimenting with different flavors. Love this because it's not too sweet, like commercial granola, but could be made sweeter to suit one's taste. This recipe is going into my regular rotation of breakfast and snack recipes!
