For a richer flavor, try toasting the oats and nuts separately before combining with the wet ingredients. Feel free to substitute your favorite nuts and seeds, such as pecans, walnuts, sunflower seeds, or pumpkin seeds. Add dried fruit, like raisins, cranberries, or chopped dates, after the granola has cooled to prevent them from becoming hard and chewy during baking. If you prefer a sweeter granola, increase the amount of honey or brown sugar to taste. For a vegan option, substitute maple syrup or agave nectar for the honey.
