Perfect Homemade Granola

MAKES ABOUT 5 CUPS

INGREDIENTS: Cooking spray 1/2 cup pure maple syrup 1/4 cup canola oil 3 1/2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or your favorite nuts 1/3 cup dried cranberries 1/3 cup chopped dried mango, pineapple, apples, or your favorite dried fruit

DIRECTIONS: 1. Preheat the oven to 275°F. Lightly spray a large, rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray; set aside.

2. Combine the maple syrup and canola oil in a pyrex measuring cup and place in a microwave oven to warm. Mound the rolled oats and walnuts on the prepared baking sheet, then pour the maple syrup mixture over them and toss with two large spoons until well combined. Spread the mixture evenly on the baking sheet.

3. Bake for about 20 minutes, then remove from the oven and carefully stir. Bake for another 20 minutes, or until light golden. Note: Do not overbake or the granola may develop a bitter, burnt taste. The oats will still be a bit soft when they come out of the oven, but will harden as they cool.

4. Allow the granola to cool completely, then add the dried fruit and mix well.
