I was looking for a simple granola recipe and this is exactly that. It was very easy to put together, and smelled heavenly while baking. I will definitely be using this one from now on. And as an added bonus, Anything you like can be added. Coconut, craisins, dates, nuts, etc. I plan to be a little more adventurous with the ingredients as time goes by. But, for now, this is perfect as is.
