Thi turned out AMAZING!! I used grade b maple syrup instead of honey, one thing though, you will need about double the amount of honey/maple in the mixture, so the whole thing stays together better.
I love the ussage of whole flax seeds in the granola, it adds soo much protein and adds a nice body, unique nexture verses using wheat germ. Last, ive made this with both whole, skin on almonds, and slivered pistachios, although the almond one was amazing, the pistachio one was even better!

The original recipe has 1/4 cup maple syrup mixed with the oil and honey. Makes a WORLD of difference. I made this recipe and thought this doesn't taste as good as I remember. Then came across the original I had saved in my personal file and sure enough. The maple syrup had been left out of this recipe.

This is has now become my official granola recipe. I've made it several times and modified it in many ways, but the base is great (though may need a bit more "sauce," I never use the banana slices, and I grind about 95% of the flax seed. I've used sliced, slivered, even cinnamon almonds. I often use raisins, apricots, and crasins for color appeal. I always double the recipe and end up giving lots away as family and friends have come to expect a jar each time I make it. Provided you have enough "sauce" to hold things together, the size of your clusters will depend on how much you spread the granola on the pans to bake. Finally, I cool on the counter on wax paper and spirnkle a few tablespoons of brown sugar over it as it cools to give it a little more sweetness since I normally eat this in plain nonfat yogurt. If you use it in sweetened yogurt, it's probably sweet enough. Hope everyone enjoys this as much as I do!

I checked and double checked the granola recipe. I made it correctly, but the granola didn't clump together. Tasted ok, but pretty messy when you have to pick it up oat by oat. The berries and yogurt made a nice parfait. But I wanted extra granola for snacking. If I make this again I might add a bit of corn syrup to help it hold together.

Great flavors! Loved this recipe. To make a shortcut- you can buy pre-made granola. The lemon zest makes all the difference. Will definitely make again!

I will be holding cooking class for six 12 year old kids this summer while school is out. This recipe is delicious and will be one of by 'basics' along with chicken strips (Robin Miller and salad with classic vinaigrette (mine. (We are starting off super easy! I'm watching the food channel to pick up ideas for more classes. Hopefully, by the time these kids are in high school and college, they'll have some skills for putting together simple and healthy meals that also taste great.

I am a certified chocoholic. No matter how good desserts are, I always go back to chocolate cake or chocolate chip cookies, etc.
However, this is SO good that I am addicted. The granola is great in and of itself, but paired with the fruit and yogurt is fantastic.
Definitely a winner in my house!

I make a batch of this Granola once sometimes twice a week. I make different variations and its always a hit in my house. I have 3 kids and they eat it with yogurt or sorbet. The only problem is that I can NEVER get enough, it is absolutely ADDICTING.

this is excellent granola. i make it without the parfait and eat it out of hand. be careful with the amounts of each ingredient...it's easy to over-do an ingredient and change the entire taste.
