2. Add sugar and lemon juice, blending till smooth.
3. Combine granola, brown sugar, flour and almonds in a large mixing bowl.
4. Reserve 4 cups of this mixture.
5. Press remaining mixture evenly into a greased 9 x 13 pan.
6. Spread filling over top and cover with remaining 4 cups of granola mixture; press lightly with hands.
