DEAR SOS: I have lost the recipe for granola from the Polo Lounge at the Beverly Hills Hotel. My family loves it. I’m hoping I can get a copy.

DEAR VICKY: Sure. It makes a nice, homemade holiday gift, too.
Heat the oven to 300 degrees.
Combine the honey, corn syrup, apple juice and oil in large saucepan. Bring to a boil. Remove from the heat.
Combine the oatmeal, sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, pecans, almonds, pine nuts, coconut, wheat germ, lecithin, a dash of salt, the dry milk, brown sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Add to the hot liquid in the saucepan and stir with a wooden spoon until combined.
Spread the granola mixture on 2 baking sheets and bake, stirring with a wooden spoon every 10 minutes, until the cereal is lightly browned and crunchy, about 40 minutes. Cool, then store in airtight containers.
