Notes

**To make this recipe in the Air Fryer - Preheat to 250 degrees. Adjust the ingredients, either reducing by 50-75% depending on the size of your air fryer. Cook for 20 minutes - stirring every 7 minutes. You can remove sooner than the called for time if the granola has reached your desired brown.
 
Note - this can be made with gluten-free oats. Alternate mix-ins can include pumpkin seeds, maple syrup in place of honey, dried raisins, fruit, or chocolate chips.
