Tip canola oil uniformly over the mixture. Mix with a wooden spoon to coat mixture uniformly with oil. Mix maple syrup and dark brown sugar in a mid-sized pot. Warm mixture over a mid-sized flame till the sugar dissolves, around six minutes. Lightly mix the mixture often. Remove pot from the heat. Add vanilla extract. Mix well.
