Notes
You can switch out the nuts, the type of oil, and omit the vanilla and cinnamon if you wish. Add in 3/4 cup of dried fruit once it is cooled for a fun variation.
To make this recipe sweeter, or with bigger clusters, increase the honey to 3/4 cup. The baking time will slightly decrease, so watch it carefully.
