The best granola recipe in the world. (That I have found)


In big microwave safe bowl mix together
2 C Brown Sugar
1 C Honey
1/3 C water
Microwave sugar mixture on high for five minutes. It will become liquid caramel. Watch carefully, it will bubble up. Remove from microwave and put in
3 tsp vanilla
1 tsp salt

While the sugar mix is microwaving combine in an extreamly large bowl
10 C rolled oats
6 C nuts and seeds (almonds, walnuts, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, flax seeds, millit, etc.)
2 C grains ( I like to use a 7 or 10 grain mix that I get at Winco. You can also use wheat germ or oat germ or any other grain, Quinoa, millet, ect.)
4 C unsweetened shredded coconut. (You can also pick this up at Winco or any health food store should have it.)

Poor hot sugar mixture over oats and mix to coat. Spread granola in a single layer in 4 ungreased cookie sheets.
Bake at 275 in upper and lower oven racks for 45 minutes and up to one hour, rotating pans halfwat through cooking to produce iven browning.
When cooled, scrape granols into a large bowl with metal spatula, add dried fruit if disired: rasens, currants, sultania, apricot, purne, fig, date, mango, pineapple, babana, ear, apple cherry, etc.)
My fav. it dried cranberries.
Store in airtight container in fridge to keep nuts and seeds fresh. Unless you are like my family who runs through this stuff in less then a week. : ) Then it is just fine it the pantry.
