Homemade Granola

Around the holidays I make sure that I have several staples in my pantry that I don't have year round. This includes lots of dried fruits and assorted nuts.  Many times some of these are left over and sitting in the pantry unused.  However, this year I had an idea.  I decided to make granola. The biggest expense are the fruits and nuts that are added, so all I had to do is stock up on some oats and grab some flax and sunflower seeds.
