Trust me, I'm speaking from experience. I stumbled upon this recipe a few months ago on the Granola Chronicles (see link below) and haven't bought store brand granola since. There are so many reasons to try out this recipe yourself.
1. There's only 7 ingredients.
2. It's easy!
3. You don't have to preheat the oven
4. It's DELICIOUS!! (Truly, that's the only reason you need, right?)

With all the amazing, fresh fruit in season right now, homemade granola is the perfect topping for a big bowl of Greek yogurt and chunks of fresh fruit. It's the perfect, crunchy topping to complete a bowl of breakfast sunshine. Check out the recipe below and enjoy!

Homemade Granola
3 T Honey 2
½ C Old Fashioned Oats
3 T Maple Syrup 1
tsp cinnamon
2 T Olive Oil Dash
Salt
1 T Vanilla
Combine the honey,
syrup, olive oil, and vanilla in a small bowl. Mix oats, cinnamon and salt in a
larger bowl. Pour liquid mixture over oats and stir to coat. Spread mixture
onto a baking sheet and bake in 300 degree oven (without pre-heating) for 25
minutes. Allow to cool and store in airtight container. (If you manage not to
eat it all first!!)
**Add other
ingredients as you please (coconut, raisins, sunflower seeds, craisins, etc). I
usually add ¼ c raisins after combining the oats and liquid mixture.**
