Nutty Granola

10 ingredients
5 steps

Ingredients

  • 3 cups rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup wheat bran or 1/2 cup oat bran
  • 1/2 cup wheat germ
  • 1/2 cup walnuts, chopped
  • 1/2 cup pecans, chopped
  • 1/2 cup sunflower seeds (use all raw nuts, seeds and wheat germ)
  • 1 cup raisins (I use a mix of thompsons' and golden)
  • 1/2 cup pitted dates, chopped
  • 1 - 1 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 225°F.
  2. 2
    Mix first six ingredients together and spread evenly on a couple of cookie sheets.
  3. 3
    Bake for 15 minutes, then remove and stir. Bake another 15 minutes. While it bakes, assemble the other ingredients. (coat the 1/4 cup measure with oil before using it for maple syrup).
  4. 4
    Immediately transfer oat mixture to a large bowl and stir in the dried fruit and cinnamon. Slowly, pour in the maple syrup and stir to mix well.
  5. 5
    Let it cool and store in an airtight container where, my guess is, it'll keep up to a month. Like it'll last that long :-).
