Since everyone is chipping in healthy recipe, here is what my wife

makes for me. I have 2/3 cup of it every morning with lowfat

yogurt. It's delicous.

 

Homemade Maple Syrup Granola - Nancy Simmonds

 

Mix well in a large bowl:

10 cups oats

2 cups coconut

3 cups nuts (either mixed or same kind: pecans, walnuts, sliced

almonds)

1 cup sunflower seeds - raw preferred

¾ cup sesame seeds

 

Dump into a large greased baking pan - I use a full-size aluminum

disposable pan. Bake at 300 degrees for 30 minutes, stirring every 6

minutes.

 

While that is baking, stir together in a sauce pan the following

ingredients:

1/3 cup butter

1/3 cup canola oil

1 cup pure Maple Syrup (not flavoring) or honey; or half of each

1 cup brown sugar (packed)

 

Stir and cook this together until the butter melts.

 

After the oatmeal mixture has baked for 30 minutes, stir well , then,

stir the butter/sugar mixture into it (until moisture is gone) and

bake it again for 7 minutes.

 

Stir well and add:

1/2 cup wheat germ (mixed into dried fruit to prevent sticking)

3 cups mixed dried fruit

1 ½ cups diced dates or raisins (or both)

 

Stir well and bake again one more time for 7 minutes.

 

Remove from oven then spread it out on foil to cool (it will be wet).

Then break apart and store in an airtight container. Freezes well.

Yields about 20 cups.

 

The amounts are approximate; I do measure, but may fudge on some

things just because I might want to add something more for flavor.
