Preheat oven to 165C/325FIn the largest bowl you have, add the oats, sunflower seeds, pepitas, pecans, almonds, coconut, walnuts and cashews and set aside.In a large pot, add the maple syrup, honey, oil, sugar, vanilla and brown sugar and bring to the boil. Boil for 5 minutes and the mixture will thicken slightly.Pour the hot mixture over the oats, seeds and nuts and stir to coat.Place on baking sheets lined with foil or baking paper (I used foil) and bake for 20 minutes. About halfway through baking, stir the granola to ensure all the granola gets toasted.When the granola is light brown, remove from the oven and mix in the sultanas, cranberries, apricots (or other dried fruit).When completely cool place your granola in an air tight container and it should last two weeks. (Mine won't be around longer than a week)
