Granola

9 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
4 cups shredded coconut
1 ½ cups whole hazelnuts
1 ½ cups slivered or sliced almonds
3/4 cup honey
1 ½ cups vegetable oil
1 cup golden raisins
1 cup dark raisins
1 cup cranberries
½ cup chopped apricots
½ cup chopped dates

1. Preheat over to 375.
2. Toss the oats, coconut, hazelnuts, and almonds together in a large 17 x 11 pan (or larger).
3. Whisk the honey and oil together in a small bowl. Pour over the oat mixture and stir with a wooden spoon until all the oats and nuts are coated.
4. Bake, stirring occasionally with wooden spoon, until the mixture turns a nice even golden brown, 35 to 45 minutes.
5. Remove the granola from the oven and stir constantly to aerate the mixture and keep it from sticking together, until the granola is cool. Stir in the dry fruits. Store in an airtight container.
Makes about 18 cups.
