Honey-Maple Granola
Well, if my auto, computer, or environmental posts didn't stereotype me enough-here is the ubiquitous granola recipe.
Honey-Maple Granola
Dry ingredients
6 C rolled oats
1/2 C pumpkin seeds
1/2 C flax seeds
1 C wheat bran
1 C oat bran
1c wheat germ
1 C instant dry milk
1 C shredded or chipped dried coconut
1 C slivered almonds
1 T ground cinnamon
Wet ingredients
1/2 C maple syrup
1/2 C honey
1 C cold-pressed oil
1 t vanilla
1 t almond extract
1 1/2 C raisens or currents (add at the end)
*Preheat oven to 250 F. Line 2 baking sheets with aluminum foil or parchment paper.
* In a large bowl or pot, combine all dry ingredients. In a medium bowl, whisk together wet ingredients.
* Combine the wet and dry ingredients and stir until evenly moistened. Spread onto baking sheets. Bake in oven for around 1 1/2 hours, stirring every 20 minutes.
* When done, stir in raisens and let cool.
Note: Varying nuts and fruit is a great way to add variety.
I buy almost all of my ingredients bulk organic and it is still much more economical than buying pre-made bulk granola.

I love homemade granola! One of the best things to make.
By the way---I am tagging you. Please read my post today for the details. I am curious to see what you come up with so please do it :-)
By the way---when is your baby due?? I know I am not the only one waiting to find out! Maybe he/she has decided that the living is easier on the "inside". hehehe
jill: Thanks for the kind words.
fv&A:I'll check it out.
You might be right about liking the inside better because he/she was due the 23rd. I said the baby was waiting for the long overdue snow. Well it's finally snowing today so we'll see.
