Very tasty granola. I stirred this every 15 minutes so that it would brown evenly, and the almonds still went a little darker than I'd hoped. I think I'd prefer adding them halfway through the cooking time. After this was done I added some dried cranberries and chopped cashews. Nice base recipe. Can't wait to experiment with it a bit more. Thanks chen! Made for PAC Spring 2008.
