Crunchy Fruity Granola

This blog was in desperate need for a photo. So here's the first!
And here's one of the wonderful recipes we made this week at Princess Pack:

Crunchy Fruity Granola

3 cups rolled oats
2 cups combined seeds and/or chopped nuts (we used pecans)
1/2 tsp. salt
1/3 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup oil
1/2 cup honey
1 tbsp. vanilla
1 cup assorted dried fruit (we made half with and half without)

1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees and spray baking sheet with nonstick spray
2. Combine oats, seeds, nuts, salt, and brown sugar in large bowl.
3. Combine oil, honey, and vanilla in 2 cup liquid measuring cup and pour into dry ingredients.
4. Mix thoroughly and spread on prepared tray.
5. Bake for 30 minutes or until golden. (stir once half way through)
6. Cool for 10 minutes on tray and add fruit.
7. Transfer to bowl while still warm. (this way it won't be hard to break apart later)
