How to Make Crunchy Granola Muesli

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large roasting pan (at least 11" x 14"), combine all dry ingredients (see ingredient list).
  3. In a small saucepan, gently heat the butter, honey, milk, and salt until the butter is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
  4. Pour the honey-butter mixture over the dry ingredients in the roasting pan. Stir gently but thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are evenly moistened.
  5. Bake for 20-25 minutes, stirring every 5-7 minutes to prevent burning and ensure even browning. Keep a close eye on it as it can brown quickly.
  6. Remove from oven and immediately stir in the raisins or other dried fruit of your choice.
  7. Let the granola cool completely before storing. This allows it to crisp up further.
  8. Once cooled, store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
