Warm freshly baked granola is a breakfast treat. Cold not so freshly baked granola is fun snack. You could put it in a mason jar and give it away for Christmas too. Here’s how to make it.
Ingredients:
4 cups old fashioned rolled oats
1 cup raw wheat germ
1 cup chopped walnuts
1/2 cup sunflower seeds
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup organic canola oil
1/3 cup raw honey
1/3 cup water
Preheat the oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit. Combine oats, wheat germ, walnuts, sunflower seeds, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt in a large bowl. Make a well in the middle of the dry ingredients and pour in the canola oil, honey and water. Mix together until well incorporated. Spread evenly on a baking pan.
Bake the granola for 40 minutes or until lightly browned, stirring every 15 minutes to keep the granola evenly browned and prevent it from sticking to the pan. Let it cool completely after removing from the oven.
