Chunky Homemade Granola
6 cups old-fashioned oats
1 1/2 cups sunflower seeds
1 1/2 cups slivered almonds (i did not use, still was good)
1 cup spelt flour, or flour of choice
3/4 cup packed brown sugar (i used xylitol)
1 teaspoon salt (i used more like 3-4 tsp)
3/4 cup vegetable oil (i used coconut)
1/2 cup honey (i had some raw agave, but no honey so i used agave)
1/2 cup water
1 bag (7 oz) dried mixed fruit, chopped ( i used some flaked coconut and small diced apple)
1 1/2 cups sunflower seeds
1 1/2 cups slivered almonds (i did not use, still was good)
1 cup spelt flour, or flour of choice
3/4 cup packed brown sugar (i used xylitol)
1 teaspoon salt (i used more like 3-4 tsp)
3/4 cup vegetable oil (i used coconut)
1/2 cup honey (i had some raw agave, but no honey so i used agave)
1/2 cup water
1 bag (7 oz) dried mixed fruit, chopped ( i used some flaked coconut and small diced apple)
1 Heat oven to 300°F. In very large bowl, mix oats, sunflower nuts, almonds, flour, fruit, brown sugar and salt. In small bowl, beat oil, honey and water with wire whisk until well blended. Add liquid ingredients to dry ingredients, stirring until dry ingredients are moistened.
2 Spread on 2 ungreased large cookie sheets with sides. Place both cookie sheets in oven on 2 separate oven racks, one below the other.
3 Bake 20 minutes, stirring after 10 minutes. Reverse position of cookie sheets in oven; bake 10 to 20 minutes longer, stirring every 10 minutes, until golden brown. Cool completely on cookie sheets, about 30 minutes.
4 Stir mixture to break apart. Store in tightly covered container.

It ended up taking twice as long as the directions said, to get baked. I also ended up adding a bit more oil.
This recipe is VERY tasty. I will be making more!! Maybe with some different nuts/fruit and maybe some dark chocolate.
