Ingredients:

  • 7 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup raisins
  • 1/2 cup slivered almonds
  • 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil

Directions:

  1. Preset oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Combine all dry ingredients in a large bowl and toss until well mixed.
  3. In a separate bowl (I use a glass measuring cup) use a whisk or fork to mix honey and oil together well.
  4. Pour honey and oil mixture over the dry ingredients. Use a large spoon to mix vigorously (but carefully!) until there is no 'not-sticky' granola in the bowl. This will probably take between 1-2 minutes.
  5. On a large baking sheet, or two small ones, pour granola and even out as thinly as possible. I usually put aluminum foil over the baking sheet(s) so there is little to no clean up afterwards. It also makes it easier when putting away the granola - you can just pick up the aluminum foil by the edges and pour it into your container(s).
  6. Bake granola in oven for 7-12 minutes. Check and mix the granola up a little. Keep in oven for another 5-10 minutes. Leave to cool.
  7. Store and/or eat some with yogurt or milk!
