Recipe – Homemade Granola

Packed in quart mason jars, labeled & tied with a ribbon, these make great gifts!

2 cups rolled oats (not instant)
1 cup slivered or chopped toasted almonds
1/4 cup sesame seeds
1/2 cup toasted sunflower seeds
1/2 cup unsweetened coconut
1/4 cup toasted wheat germ
1/2 cup raisins
1/2 cup dried fruit (dried apricots, raisins and dried apple are all delicious choices)
scant 1/4 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup honey

1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees.

2. In a large bowl, mix all the dry ingredients, except the dried fruits together until fully combined.

3. Add the oil, and then the honey. (the oil in the measuring cup will help the honey come out easily)

4. Toss until evenly coated and then pour out into a large baking dish.

5. Bake for 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes or so, until it’s a nice golden brown.

6. Remove from the oven, add the dried fruits, and stir to combine.

7. Let it cool completely before adding to jars.
