This is our favorite base granola recipe, with just the right crunch.

BEFORE YOU START: The flavor of the maple syrup really shines through in the finished product, so it is important to use a pure, quality maple syrup. The use of rolled oats is critical, as using quick oats in this recipe will not turn out.
