Homemade Granola

This stuff is so good!  Try not to eat it all while it is cooling!  We love it mixed with plain vanilla yogurt or with milk for breakfast or just by the handful!  The great thing is, this recipe is very versatile. You can use any combo of nuts and fruit you want!  In this recipe I used grape seed oil but you can use regular vegetable oil if you like!
