LIZ'S GRANOLA

Warm in a small pan:
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup maple syrup
2 Tbsp. vegetable or canola oil
1 Tbsp. vanilla
1 Tbsp. cinnamon

In a large bowl, combine:
3 cups rolled oats
1/3 cup sunflower seeds
1/3 cup sliced almonds
1/3 cup coconut
1-2 Tbsp flax seeds and sesame seeds

Add liquid ingredients to dry ingredients and stir until thoroughly coated. Bake on a cookie sheet at 350 degrees for 30 minutes, taking out every 10 minutes to stir. Add dry fruit of choice (raisins, dried apples, cranberries, blueberries, etc).

For less sugar content, mix double the dry ingredient recipe with one recipe of liquid ingredients.
