granola

6 cups quick oats
1/2 cup firmly packed brown sugar
3/4 cup wheat germ
1/2 cup nonfat dry milk
2/3 cup honey
2/3 cup vegetable oil or canola oil
2 Tablespoons water
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
optional: raisins, coconut, sesame seeds and nuts (I've never used any of those)
In large bowl combine oats, brown sugar, wheat germ and nonfat dry milk (and coconut, sesame seeds and nuts if desired). Stir that all together. Combine honey, vegetable or canola oil, water and vanilla. Add to oat mixture. Stir to coat ingredients well. (The actual recipe says to do this next part diffferent but when we made it this is how we did it and it turns out well, and this is how the Mechams do it) Place that in one cookie sheet and bake at 300 degrees. Leave it in there for 12 minutes and then take it out and sift it with a fork. Then put it back in the oven for about 12-15 minutes and it should turn out! This makes about 14 cups.


this is great because i use my food storage for a lot of it. enjoy!
