Mc’S Homemade Granola

• 1 stick Butter
• 3/4 cups Honey
• 1/2 cups Packed Brown Sugar
• 2 cups Old Fashioned Oats
• 1-1/2 cup Mixed Nuts
• 1 dash Vanilla
• 1 pinch Salt
• 3/4 cups Craisins
• 4 ounces, weight White Chocolate Chips (Optional)

1. 1. Preheat the oven to 325F. Butter an 8 inch square baking pan. Line the bottom and sides with parchment paper. (I didn't have parchment paper, so I just greased the pan really well).
2. 2. In a large saucepan, melt the butter with the honey and sugar and cook over moderate heat, stirring constantly until an amber caramel forms, about 5 minutes.
3. 3. Stir in the oats, mixed nuts, vanilla, and salt and cook, stirring constantly, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the Craisins. Pour into the 8 inch pan and smush it down tightly. Put into oven and bake for 20 - 25 minutes.
4. 4. Let cool completely before removing from the pan or it will fall apart! *If it falls apart, you can form it into "bar" shapes...and put in fridge to harden.
5. (You can also make this with white chocolate chips. Add 4 ounces white chocolate chips when you add the Craisins or you can use them in place of them. Beware, they will melt!)
