Homemade Granola

Here is another granola recipe I found and actually tried this one first!
It turned out really good and I can't wait to try Marthas Granola too!
___________________________
Homemade Granola
4 cups old-fashioned oats
1 cup slivered almonds (1/2 cup almonds and 1/2 cup pecans is also good)
1/2 cup sweetened coconut flakes
1/2 tsp cinnamon
pinch of salt
1/3 cup canola oil
1/4 cup honey
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla
________________
Preheat oven to 325. Lightly coat a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray. In a large bowl, stir together oats, almonds, coconut, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside
In a small saucepan, combine oil, honey and sugar. Bring to a boil and remove from heat. Stir in vanilla. Drizzle syrup over oat mixture. Pour granola onto prepared baking sheets and spread out evenly. Bake stirring occasionally until golden brown (about 25 minutes). Let granola cool completely on a wire rack. Break into chunks and store in an airtight container.
