My mom makes this homemade granola that is really good.  Here is the recipe:

•  1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar

•  1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons maple syrup

•  1/4 cup vegetable oil

•  3/4 teaspoon salt

•  1 cup raisins (optional)

Preheat oven to 250 degrees F.  In a large bowl, combine the oats, nuts, coconut, and brown sugar.  In a separate bowl combine maple syrup, oil, and salt.  Combine both mixtures and pour onto 2 sheet pans.  Cook for 1 hour and 15 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes to achieve an even color.

Remove from oven and transfer into a large bowl.  Add raisins and mix until evenly distributed.

Enjoy!
