Stir to combine with spoon. Pour warmed maple syrup, olive oil and vanilla into the dry ingredients and mix through until nuts and seeds are well coated. Line 2 large baking trays with baking paper. Divide the granola onto the trays and evenly spread the mixture out into one layer. Keep the granola well-spaced so it keeps it crunchy and less likely to become soggy. Place the trays in preheated, oven and bake for oven for approximately 50 minutes or until golden brown. Continue to check muesli and give it mix now and then to prevent burning. Once baked, cool muesli on trays. Store in an airtight container. Makes 8 serves, 1/2 cup per serve.
