2 cups rolled oats

1 tablespoon butter

1 tablespoon honey

Using the same frying pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the honey, brown sugar, and salt. Stir constantly until its bubbly. Use the parchment paper to pick up the oats on the baking sheet and return them to the frying pan. Add the almonds, cranberries, and cinnamon to the pan. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and spread granola onto the prepared baking sheet.
