The Only Granola I Eat (Edit recipe)

I think most people like granola. Growing up in California in the 70s and 80s granola was very popular. But, I just never liked it. It always tasted bland to me. My husband enjoys granola and I'm not one to shy away from a challenge so I came up with this recipe after many attempts. What I love it that it is very easy and very flexible. I change up the nuts and fruit depending on the season and what is in the pantry.
