Mix oil, honey, and maple syrup together in a separate large bowl. Add beaten eggs.
Pour wet mixture into dry mixture and mix until combined.
Use your hands to drop into 2" wide diameter rounds on parchment lined pans.
Bake for about 8 minutes or until lightly browned around the edges.
Alternatively, you can make crunchy granola by scattering granola mixture over parchment lined baking trays and baking for about 8-10 minutes, or until crunchy and starting to brown. Then you can mix in dried fruits
