Started experimenting with granola while trying to make some snacks for my wife during her pregnancy to make sure she was getting plenty of protein. I combined this from several different recipes.
The nuts and seeds I chose are purely your decision - I would recommend keeping the ratio 3 cups oats to 1.5 cups nuts/seeds
1. Preheat Oven to 275 degrees and line a 9 x 13 baking sheet with parchment paper
2. In a large bowl mix Oats, Peanuts, Almonds, Hazelnuts and Sunflower Seeds until well incorporated.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk Peanut Butter, Honey, Maple Syrup, Canola Oil, and Brown Sugar until combined.
4. Using a spatula pour the peanut butter mixture over the oats/nuts/seeds and mix with a wooden spoon until fully incorporated.
5. Spread mixture on the baking sheet. If you want clusters it is best to spread like a brownie mix into one continuous level mixture (no higher than the sides of baking sheet).
6. Bake for 15-20 minutes depending on how you want the color or caramelization of the granola. Mix the mixture to get even color, however, try not to separate.
7. Repeat Step 6 based on color and flavor depth preferences keeping in mind it will get drier and crunchier the longer it is in the oven.
8. When satisfied with the color and dryness of the mixture, remove from the oven and let cool for about 2-3 hours.
9. Once completely cool, break up the mixture into clusters and sized to your preference.
