With the ever increasing price of store-bought cereal, I decided it was time to come up with a homemade one. You may want to add nuts or dried fruits also. Store it in an airtight container. (I keep it in the cardboard oats canister in a zip-tied bag.)

Ingredients

8 serv.

old fashioned oats, uncooked↗4 cups
canola oil↗1 tablespoon
maple syrup↗2 tablespoons
honey↗1⁄4 cup
vanilla↗2 teaspoons
cinnamon↗1⁄4 teaspoon
kosher salt (less if regular salt)↗3⁄8 teaspoon
butter-flavor Pam cooking spray

Step-by-step instructions

1
Heat oven to 350 degrees and spray 10x15 jelly roll pan with butter-flavor Pam. (I also spray both bowls and the spatula I use to mix the cereal, then nothing sticks and clean up is easy.).
2
In a small bowl, mix together oil, syrup, honey, vanilla, cinnamon and salt. Pour over oats in a large bowl and mix thoroughly.
3
Spread evenly in the pan, and bake for 10 minutes, stir and bake 9 more minutes. (If you use a dark pan, shorten cooking time by 1 or 2 minutes.).
