Maple Almond Granola From Food to Live By

4 1/2 c. old fashioned rolled oats
3/4 c. raw sunflower seeds
1 1/2 c. slivered almonds
2 Tbsp. cinnamon (or more if you love cinnamon like me:)
1 1/4 c. pure maple syrup
1/3 c. canola oil

Combine dry and stir in wet ingredients. Cook at 325 degrees in a 12 by 17-inch pan for 25 min. Stir and cook for an additional 15 - 20 min stirring occasionally. Will burn quickly so watch closely at the end. You can add 1 c. of raisins after it's just out so they plump up (unless you are also of the persuasion that raisins ruin everything, then just skip this part!) Plain organic yogurt + homemade granola + a few fresh raspberries = best part of my day.

*Refrigerate for three months or freeze up to six months.
