Whole Grain Granola image

This recipe for a not-too-sweet, olive-oil and honey-enriched granola can be used as a template. Vary the types and amounts of puffed and rolled (also called flaked) grains, coconut and nuts to suit your taste, as long as you use eight cups altogether. And feel free to add chopped dried fruit at the end, stirring it into the granola mix while it's still warm. If you want to add spices, stir a mix of ground cinnamon, ginger, and cardamom into the honey mixture before baking. It's easy to make this recipe your own.
