Ina'S Homemade Granola - cooking recipe

Ingredients

4 cups old fashioned oats
2 cups sweetened coconut, shredded
2 cups sliced almonds
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup honey
1 1/2 cups dried apricots, diced
1 cup dried fig, diced
1 cup dried cranberries
1 cup cashews, roasted

Preparation

Preheat over to 350 degrees.
Toss, oats, coconut and almonds together in large bowl and set aside.
Whisk together the oil and honey in small bowl and pour over the oat mixture and stir with wooden spoon until all the oats, coconut and nuts are coated.
Pour into a 13x9 baking pan and bake. Stir occasionally with spatula until mixture turns a nice golden brown about 45 minutes.
Remove granola from oven and allow to cool, stirring occasionally. Add the apricots, figs, cranberries and cashews. You can put whatever mix of dried fruit in that you please. I have even started to put in a cup of dark chocolate chips after the oats mix has cooled.
Great snack!
Store cooled granola in airtight container.
