I decided to add all the calories together for this recipe. I used pecans instead of cashews and dropped the raisins. The total calories in this recipe is +/- 3892. I haven't divided it up into cups to see how many cups there are for servings. I usually take about 3/4 cup for a snack at work, and I am guessing I could get around 10-15 servings. That would put the calories per 3/4 cup serving at around 259-389 for 15 servings or 10 servings respectively. Hope this helps someone else watching their calories!

This is an excellent recipe to start with for a base recipe. I use walnuts or pecans instead of the cashews. I also add pumpkin, sunflower, flax or chia seeds to bump up the nutritional content. Sometimes I add some cinnamon. I stick with 1/4 c of the brown sugar, oil and maple syrup and do not add the extra 2 tbsp since we do not like it quite that sweet. Oh yes, sometimes I add dried cherries, dried blueberries or banana chips after the baking process.....the possibilities are endless!!

YUM! So simple and delicious with ingredients I already keep in my pantry! Made this just as is except subbed pecans for the cashews and it is AMAZING! I am making dinner but cannot stop eating the granola. It is addictive. Make a double batch.
