Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C).

Notes
- For a nut-free granola, substitute sunflower seeds or another seed for the almonds and walnuts.
- To control sweetness, reduce agave to 1/4 cup; add more after tasting before baking.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks for optimal freshness.
