I made this recipe almost exact. The only difference is that I used craisins instead of raisins. My husband who usually hates granola ate most of it in 3 days. I love this recipe I will definitely be giving this as Christmas gifts this year.

We went on vacation to a bed and breakfast in Vermont. They had granola every morning for breakfast. I loved it so much I searched for a recipe. I have always loved Alton's recipes so I decided to try it. Let me tell you it is better than the granola in Vermont. I have it for breakfast, eat it alone or even on ice cream. The only change I made was I used dried cherries, cranberries, blueberries and apricots. Try this recipe you will not be disappointed.

My family loves this recipe! I keep a bowl in the kitchen at all times for anyone to grab when they want. I line my baking sheets with parchment paper for easy cleanup. I usually make a double recipe - using 1/4 cup expeller pressed safflower oil & 1/4 cup extra virgin coconut oil. I also add 1 cup pecans, 1 cup macadamia nuts and 1 cup walnuts in addition to the almonds.(keeping proportions the same I also add flax seeds, a bit of honey and a teaspoon of cinnamon to the doubled recipe. I toss it once at 40 mins. Once baked, I add the raisins & also dried blueberries - and depending on what I have on hand - anything from dried cherries, dried pineapple to mango with fabulous reviews from the family. It's a winner. Make it exact per the recipe or add what you love. It always comes out delicious!
