Granola

I love granola for breakfast! Especially with vanilla yogurt and berries, layered into a parfait. This granola is easy and so yummy! It keeps well in the freezer. You can make just a half a batch.

6 cups oatmeal
1/2 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup wheat germ
1/2 cup coconut
1/4 cup sesame seeds
1 cup chopped nuts
1/2 cup powdered milk

Mix together in a large bowl.

2/3 cup honey (or maple syrup, any kind)
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
2 Tbsp water
2/3 cup oil

Heat in microwave for 30 seconds. Mix well and pour into bowl of dry ingredients. Coat well.

Pour into 2 9x13 pans.

Bake at 300 for 25-35 minutes, stirring about every 15 minutes. Bake until golden brown.

Cool, stirring occasionally to break up the granola.

Add dried fruit.

Store in airtight container. Freeze for longer storage.
