Made this a few weeks ago. Shared some with my neighbor who is on a gluten free diet. After it was all gone I ate a bought version. No comparison! I will make granola from now on. I added flax seed and pumpkin seeds this time, great. Thanks Ellie for another simply wholesome recipe.

Very good recipe. I had just bought a very big bag of oatmeal so I needed some recipes. This one is great, I take it to work with me and eat it out on my route. Thanks for posting.

I've made this several times, and nothing could be easier! I think the original combination of the nuts and raisins is my favorite, but I have made it with pistachios and cashews in place of the walnuts and pecans, which was amazing. I've also made it with chopped dried apricots, but didn't like it at all because they turned out really tough and difficult to chew after baking. Trying dried cranberries is next on my list.

Excellent & healthy. I use 1 C slivered almonds for the nuts, craisins instead of raisins and add 1 C unsweetened shredded coconut. I also use 1/2 C honey instead of the maple syrup. You can really play around with this recipe and suit it to your taste without affecting the outcome. Delicious, crunchy & filling!

I LOVE this especially for my Biggest Loser Kingman Challenge that my husband and I participate in here in Kingman, AZ. For our first 5-day's kick-start to losing weight, we have a protein shake for breakfast, 8 oz. meat and 2 c. veggies/fruit for dinner and only 1/2 cup of granola in between. This recipe is so light and crunchy and yet the nuts make it very satisfying. I don't usually add the raisins as it tends to soften the nuts. I have shared this recipe with our group and other family members, and keep a jar of it on the kitchen counter for a GREAT 1/2 cup snack! Thanks Ellie!

I love this because it's so simple (i.e. cheap way to use leftover nuts and oats. It doesn't clump very well, but I think that makes it a perfect addition to my Greek yogurt in the morning, like a very crunchy cereal. It's very satisfying and easy to adapt. I subbed soy nuts for the walnuts because they were cheaper, and I eventually tripled the cinnamon. I doubled it to start because I like cinnamon, but the flavor was still a little too subtle for me, so I tripled it the second time around.

I love this granola!!! I use steel cut oatmeal to give the granola a crunchier texture. I like that this recipe uses no sugar and/or oil. It's delicious in the morning with yogurt or for an afternoon snack.

This recipe is so great! It may not have the taste of other granola recipes that have butter and sugar, but I picked this recipe for it's healthy ingredients and am rating it based on that. Even though it didn't give the clumps other reviewers mentioned, it is still very crunchy in my yogurt. I did half raisins half craisins. Next time I will add just a little honey before baking and a little mopre cinnamon and add vanilla extract, for a little twist.

Perfection. Simple, healthy and ready to adapt to what you've got in your panty and imagination. I often add a little freeze dried fruit, sub agave nectar for 1/2 the maple syrup and swap out the nuts based on what's on sale (pecans are so darn expensive now.
