In a separate small bowl, mix together brown sugar and water and microwave (high) for 5 minutes.
Add vanilla and salt to liquid mixture and stir until salt is dissolved.
Pour over oats and nuts in a large bowl; mix well.
Line 2 cookie sheets with parchment paper; divide granola mixture between them.

Let granola air cool for 30 minutes then break into pieces and store in air tight containers.
When ready to serve optional dried fruit may be added; also excellent with vanilla yogurt.
