My wife has been making this for nearly as long as we've been married and I've never seen her use a recipe; sorry. Sometimes I get some of the ingredients for her; this one has dried cranberries, coconut flakes, and pumpkin seeds.
I aspire to be like your wife and be able throw it all together. My family loves granola with yogurt, so I need to practice. I have everything but the cranberries on hand. Sounds delicious, thank you!
I generally follow this recipe, but normally do about double the amount of oats for the quantity of honey and oil, as I'm looking for it to be a bit less sweet and a bit drier. You can add anything after it's cooked, and before it's cooled - I normally add loads of sultanas and dried cranberries, and a dried tropical fruit mix. I also sometimes mix in some desiccated coconut.
Mmm, had to look up sultanas but they sound like a great addition! My kids like it sweeter of course, but I love the mix of dried fruit and crunch. Will have to play around with it some, but thanks for sharing!

I know it's fairly simple to make but I haven't taken a stab yet. Do you mind sharing your recipe for the granola?

I just had oatmeal, but it didn't look half as good as this.
