 +====== Almond Granola w/Dried Fruit ======
 +/* Description */
 +Store-bought granola suffers from many shortcomings. It’s often loose and gravelly and/or infuriatingly expensive. We wanted to make our own granola at home, with big, satisfying clusters and crisp texture. The secret was to firmly pack the granola mixture into a rimmed baking sheet before baking. Once it was baked, we had a granola “bark” that we could break into crunchy clumps of any size.

 +|**Prep:** 0:10|**Wait:** 0:00|**Cook:** 0:45|

 +====== Ingredients ======
 +
 +  * 1/3 cup maple syrup
 +  *     1/3 cup packed (2 1/3 ounces) light brown sugar
 +  *     4 teaspoons vanilla extract
 +  *     1/2 teaspoon salt
 +  *     1/2 cup vegetable oil
 +  *     5 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
 +  *     2 cups (10 ounces) raw almonds, chopped coarse
 +  *  2 cups raisins or other dried fruit, chopped
 +
 +
 +====== Directions ======
 +  - Adjust oven rack to upper-middle position and heat oven to 325 degrees. Line rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
 +  - Whisk maple syrup, brown sugar, vanilla, and salt in large bowl. Whisk in oil. Fold in oats and almonds until thoroughly coated.
 +  - Transfer oat mixture to prepared baking sheet and spread across sheet into thin, even layer (about 3/8 inch thick). Using stiff metal spatula, compress oat mixture until very compact. Bake until lightly browned, 40 to 45 minutes, rotating pan once halfway through baking. Remove granola from oven and cool on wire rack to room temperature, about 1 hour. Break cooled granola into pieces of desired size. Stir in dried fruit. (Granola can be stored in airtight container for up to 2 weeks.)

 +
 +====== Notes ======
 +Chopping the almonds by hand is the first choice for superior texture and crunch. If you prefer not to hand chop, substitute an equal quantity of slivered or sliced almonds. (A food processor does a lousy job of chopping whole nuts evenly.) Use a single type of your favorite dried fruit or a combination. Do not use quick oats.
