Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup safflower oil
1 pound rolled oats
1 cup shredded, unsweetened coconut
1/2 cup sliced toasted almonds
2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
1/2 cup golden raisins
1/2 cup safflower oil, plus more for baking dish
2/3 cup honey
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees with rack in center position. Line a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with parchment and lightly oil.

  • Spread the granola in the baking dish and pack firmly. Bake for one hour, or until golden on top and along the edges. Cool completely.
  • Remove cooled granola to a cutting board. Cut in half lengthwise, and then cut crosswise into 1 1/2-inch-wide bars. Store in an airtight container.
