Note
Store cooled granola in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks. For longer storage, keep in the refrigerator or freezer.
Substitute honey with maple syrup or agave for a vegan version. Use any dried fruit you prefer, such as cranberries, apricots, or chopped dates.
For extra crunch, add a pinch of salt or cinnamon to the dry ingredients. Watch closely while baking to prevent burning.
