Honey Nut Granola

1.5 Cups of Old-Fashioned Oats
2.5 Cups of Quick Oats
1.5 Cups Slivered Almonds
1 Cup Coarsely Chopped Pecans
1 Cup Raw Sunflower Seeds
1/3 Cup Canola Oil
1 Cup Honey
1.5 Teaspoons Vanilla Extract
1 Tablespoon Cinnamon

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Mix Oats and Nuts in a large bowl.

Mix Oil, Honey, Vanilla, and Cinnamon in another bowl; add to dry ingredients, mixing well.


Spread mixture onto two parchment (I used non-stick Reynold's wrap) lined baking sheets.


Bake in oven for 10 minutes, remove and stir. Bake for another 7 minutes, remove and stir. (I did this last step 3 times).


Remove from oven and let cool completely before eating.

This is yummy on top of vanilla ice cream with a little Hershey's syrup. Reminded me of Chi-Chi's fried ice cream.
