Delicious! I made one triple-batch with pecans and walnuts and one with just pecans, and I preferred the just pecans one. This was SO easy to make! Definitely does NOT make clusters, just nice crunchy granola for cereal or for topping things (also a delicious snack). Will definitely make again! We're giving these batches away as gifts.

I made this three times in the past week as gifts! <br/><br/>The first time I followed the directions pretty closely, but also added 1 tablespoon of ground flaxseed meal, a half cup of chopped almonds, one scrapped vanilla bean to the syrups, and craisins at the end. I also added a pinch or two of kosher salt. It turned out amazing!<br/><br/>The second batch I ran out of maple syrup and so used honey - This time the granola appeared mushy after 40 minutes so I kept it in 10 minutes longer at 325 degrees and it got a little burnt, but still tasty.<br/><br/>The third time I used the honey strategy once more and took out the granola after 40 mins - it was still mushy but dried up in only a few minutes. Perfect.
