In small saucepan, cook brown sugar, oil and honey over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until sugar dissolves, about 2 minutes. Stir in vanilla.In food processor, pulse together oats, almonds, cinnamon, salt and brown sugar mixture until combined but still chunky, about 5 or 6 times. Press scant 1/2 cup into bottom and up side of each well of greased 6-count jumbo muffin pan.
Bake in 300°F (150°C) oven until golden, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool in pan for 20 minutes. Gently twist granola bowls to loosen from pan; transfer to rack to cool completely. (Make-ahead: Store in airtight container for up to 5 days.)

Tip from The Test Kitchen: Moisten your hands if the granola mixture starts to stick to your fingers as you're pressing it into the muffin pan.
