I am a former chef and now a vegetarian and I make my own quite often, I have a bulk food store were I can go and buy all the ingredients, and with that look to things you lie and would find tastey in a granola recipe.
I buy my grains and other seeds items like oatmeal, rye and barley flakes, quinoa, flax seeds, raw sunflower seeds, hemp seed (only in Canada), winter wheat berries, almonds (sliced or slivered) then my fruits, raisins, dried apricots, dried apples, dried cranberries or blueberries. I then chop, tear or cut them and mix them with buckewheat honey, flax seed oil, protein powder (non animal), spices (cinnimon and nutmeg), sea salt.
I make it up like a struesel for a cake or pie, spread it on baking trays, and bake it for 30 minutes at 325 d F and then cool it, and break it up into a couple of large ZipLok bags and eat 1/2 to 2/3 of a cup with soya milk on it, even warmed in the microwave for a nice hot alternative to plain old oatmeal.
