This is my favorite granola recipe and I've tried many. I like the fact that it is low in oil. I usually omit the brown sugar b/c I'm trying to cut back on sugar. I switch up the nut/seed mixture each time, but it always turns out well. Thanks Sunny! Love your show!

This recipe is such a hit in my house that I half to make batch nearly daily. The kids add it their yogurt. I make the batch without the nuts for the yogurt. Nobody walks past the bowl without grabbing a handful. When I do add nuts I like to substitue with cashews or peanuts.
