This recipe bakes up into the chewiest, crispiest, toastiest granola you've ever had, and can easily be customized with whatever combinations of dried fruits and nuts you can dream up. Storebought granola just doesn't stand a chance.
In a large mixing bowl, stir together all of the ingredients until thoroughly combined.
Turn out onto a large foil-lined baking sheet, flattening the mixture into a mound in the centre of the pan. Place on the top rack of preheated oven, and bake for 20 minutes.
Remove from the oven. Using a wooden spoon, gently break up the granola into large clumps, spreading out evenly over the full surface of the pan. Return to the oven for another 15-20 minutes or until lightly toasted, stirring the granola halfway through to ensure it browns evenly.
Allow the granola to cool completely in the pan before scooping into large mason jars for storage (assuming you don't snarf down the whole batch as soon as it cools, that is).
