Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
1/3 cup honey (if you are using a honey that has crystallized, just melt it for a few seconds)
1/4 cup maple syrup
1/3 cup canola oil
2 tablespoons water
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (I use 1 tsp)
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 cups rolled oats (I use 5 cups)
1/4 cup sesame seeds (I did not include this)
1/2 cup raw sunflower seeds (I did not include this)
3/4 cup chopped nuts of your choice
3/4 cup shredded unsweetened coconut (I use 1/2 cup sweetened)
1/2 cup raisins
1/2 cup dried cherries, chopped dried apricots and/or dried cranberries (use any combination of dried fruit that you enjoy and as much of it as you like!)
Directions:
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°. Prepare a high-sided cookie sheet or lasagna pan with parchment paper, oil, butter, or a large silicone mat.

2. Combine the honey, maple syrup, oil, water, and vanilla, set aside.

3. Toss together all of the dry ingredients. (leaving the raisins and dried fruit out until after the granola is baked). Add the honey mixture and toss with a spoon until the oats are well covered.

4. Spread the granola over two rimmed baking sheets in a thin layer.

5. Bake for 25-30 minutes. After 10 minutes toss the granola with a spoon and rotate the trays from top to bottom so they both bake evenly. keep a close eye on it as it starts to turn brown so it doesn't over bake. It will be a deep golden brown when it is done.

6. Allow the granola to cool on cooling rack and then put in a large bowl and add the dried fruit.
Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
Watch when baking - it can brown quickly. I think it helps to bake on a rack in the middle of the oven.
