Granola?

I'm wondering if anyone has a granola recipe that doesn't have nuts in it, as I can't eat them. I just love granola.

    I make the following for my daughter:
    1 can condensed milk (regular or fat free), 2 tbls butter, 3 cups oats, 1 cup sunflower seeds, 1 cup dried cranberries, 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips, 1/2 cup either PB2 or flax seeds or 5 grain cereal (I purchase at a local co-op in bulk). Mix thoroughly with your hands.

    Spray a 9X13 pan with cooking spray. Press the mixture firmly into the pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 22 minutes.

    If you like a softer top, mix 1 tbls water with 1 tsp honey or maple syrup and brush on the top when you remove it from the oven.

    Cut into 36 pieces. Each piece has about 115-125 calories depending on the ingredients. My daughter eats them when she works out and says they give her more energy than a larger, commercially made granola bar.

    If you like granola in yogurt, just crumble one bar. Truly yummy!
