This is versatile granola is so much better than anything you'll buy in a store. Great with milk or yogurt. If you prefer chunkier granola, decrease oats. For less chunky granola, add extra oats and stir before cooling. Ingredients:
6 1/2 cups rolled oats |
3/4 cup raisins (or craisins) |
1 cup almonds (or other nuts) |
1/2 cup sunflower seeds (or pumpkin seeds) |
1/4 cup brown sugar |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon cinnamon |
2/3 cup grapeseed oil (or vegetable oil) |
1/2 cup honey |
3 tablespoons white sugar |
1 teaspoon almond extract |
Directions:
1. Mix oats, nuts, sugar, salt and cinnamon together in a large bowl.
2. In a small saucepan, mix oil, honey and white sugar.
3. Heat on medium, stirring frequently, until the mixture bubbles and foam appears.
4. Remove from heat. Add extract.
5. Add liquid to oats and nut mixture. Stir very well, making sure there are no dry white oats.
6. Grease a square or rectangle pan that can hold at least 11 cups (13X9 will work). Add mixture to pan.
7. Bake at 300 degrees for 25 minutes.
8. Cool before stirring.
