I just finished making a batch of this from the catalog. We didn't have oat bran so I used wheat. I had the same thought, it was good, but might be even better with some cinnamon or almond extract or... I haven't made much granola in the past but thought this one seemed a little lower in fat and sugar, and think it will be enjoyed by the whole family!
