Homemade Maple & Walnut Granola

Adapted from Alton Brown's recipe from Good Eats

• 3/4 cup rolled oats
• 1/2 cup walnuts
• 3 tbsp sweetened coconut
• 1 tbsp brown sugar
• 1 tbsp maple syrup
• 1 tbsp canola oil
• a pinch of salt

Preheat oven to 250F. Combine oats, nuts, coconut, sugar and salt together in a bowl. Combine syrup and oil. Mix the two together well and spread out on a quarter-sheet pan in an even layer. Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes, stirring every 10 - 15 minutes for even color. Remove, let cool, enjoy.

Notes:

1. If adding dried fruit, simply stir in once the granola comes out of the oven.
