- Mix the first four ingredients (the liquids) together in a large bowl, and then add the remaining ingredients, stirring until the oats and groats are completely coated.
- Press the granola mixture evenly onto the prepared baking sheet with the back of the spoon, a spatula, or your hand wetted with water.
