10m prep 1h 0m cook 1h 10m ready
9 ½ cups This full-flavored granola, which is cooked until “well done,” has an almost savory quality. We think of it as granola for people who don’t like granola. Preheat the oven to 325°F. Lightly oil 2 large baking sheets (or line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper for easier cleanup).
