==Ingredients==
    * 3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
    * ½ cup chopped raw almonds
    * ½ cup sunflower seeds
    * ¼ cup whole-wheat flour
    * ¼ cup oat or wheat bran
    * 1 Tbs ground cinnamon
    * ¾ tsp ground ginger
    * ¾ tsp ground cardamom
    * ¾ cup honey
    * ½ cup unsweetened, unfiltered apple juice
    * 1 Tbs vanilla extract
    * 2 tsp canola oil
    * 2 tsp grated orange zest
    * 2 Tbs fresh orange juice

==Method==
  - Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Lightly coat a baking sheet with vegetable oil spray.
  - In a large mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, almonds, sunflower seeds, flour, bran, cinnamon, ginger, and cardamom.
  - In another bowl, whisk together honey, apple juice, vanilla, and oil until the honey is thoroughly incorporated. Add the orange zest and orange juice.
  - Pour wet ingredients over dry ingredients and mix well. Spread the granola evenly over the baking sheet and bake for 1 ½ to 2 hours, checking every 15 or so minutes. When the granola begins to brown, stir and turn over gently with a spatula. Take care that the outside edges do not burn. Your house or apartment should, by this point, smell spectacular.
  - When golden and dry, scrape onto a cool baking sheet and set aside to cool. Granola will crisp as it cools. Store in an airtight container, preferably in the refrigerator.
