Homemade Granola

1. Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a half sheet pan (18 x 13 inches) with parchment paper and set aside.
2. Heat the honey, turbinado sugar, oil, sea salt, cinnamon and vanilla extract in a small saucepan. Heat the mixture for 2-3 minutes over medium heat until warm.
3. Add all the dry ingredients into a large mixing bowl. Drizzle syrup mixture over the dry ingredients. Gently toss until evenly combined.
4. Spread the granola evenly on the sheet pan and gently press it down with a spatula. Bake for 25 minutes, then without stirring, remove the pan and rotate it 180° (so that it will cook evenly from front to back). Bake for 15-20 more minutes until the granola is lightly golden on top. Transfer the pan to a wire baking rack and let it cool completely. If the granola seems a bit loose when it comes out of the oven, don’t worry, it will dry and harden as it cools.
