Granola

Home-made Granola over some yogurt is one of our favorite breakfast/snack foods.

When I make this, I just use what I have on hand and don't really measure. This is the basic idea.

4 C of rolled oats

1/2 C honey

1 tsp Vanilla extract or almond extract

3/4 C of coconut

1/4 C wheat germ or wheat bran

EVOO or Veg. oil

brown sugar to taste (but not a necessity)

Add other things if you desire....such as

Sliced almonds,brazil nuts, pecans, cashews, etc...

Raisins, cranberries or other dried fruit

flax seed

Maple syrup (works well if you don't have any honey)

Stir together the dry ingredients first then pour in the wet ingredients. Stir until coated.

Bake at 325 degrees for 10 minutes, stir and cook for another 10 minutes. Cool completely and store in a container or ziploc bag.
