Aimee's Granola Cereal


Granola Cereal

Step 1:
10 c rolled oats
2 c Wheat Germ
2 c chopped unsalted nuts of your choice (pecans and almonds is what I used) You can buy the almonds sliced.
2 c sunflower seeds
1 c sesame seeds
1 c coconut
1 t salt
2 t cinnamon
¾ c brown sugar

Combine in large bowl

Step 2:
In a separate bowl mix together

2/3 c honey
¾ c light tasting vegetable oil (Crisco)
½ c water

mix together and warm in microwave, this makes it easier to combine with the dry ingredients.

Step 3:
Make a well (hole) in center of dry ingredients and pour liquid in it.
Mix thoroughly

Spread on cookie sheet, no more than ½ inch thick.
Roast 300 degrees in oven for 10-15 min at a time, stir spread out and repeat until its golden brown. (I baked it twice at 15 min)

Let cool

Stir in 2 cups dried fruit of your choice (I used cranberries)

Store in airtight container (zip lock bags work fine)

I store it in the freezer so it makes the milk extra cold.

YUMMY!
