Updated Granola Recipe

I bought some granola the other day and the raisins were too tough and burnt.  This lead me to make my own granola.  Here's the recipe I based it on:

Basic Granola on CHOW

This recipe calls for 1/3 cup of honey.  I didn't realize I only had 1 tsp. of honey left, so I substituted the rest of the honey with Raw Organic Agave Nectar.  If you want this to be vegan granola, skip the honey.

For the fruit, I chopped up 1/2 cup of pitted dates
For the nuts, I mixed in 1/2 cup chopped raw almonds and 1/3 cup walnuts

I also happened to have some ground vanilla (a dear friend from Hamburg brought it back for me).

My granola is gluten-free because I used gluten-free oats.  If you (or the people you share this with) don't have issues with gluten, you can use regular old fashioned oats.

Here's the finished product:
