Breakfast Granola image

My family loves this granola! We usually mix about 1/4-1/3 cup of it in a smoothie for breakfast every morning because it tastes so great with the smoothie and it lasts us a couple of weeks this way. Tastes great on its own or mixed with your favorite cereal also. You can also add some raisins after its finished baking.

Time 2h20m

Yield 8 bowls

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 -2 cup coconut
6 cups rolled oats
1 cup wheat germ
1 tablespoon salt
1/4 cup honey or 1/4 cup maple syrup
3/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla flavoring
4 tablespoons oil
1 cup pecans (or whatever else you have on hand) or 1 cup walnuts (or whatever else you have on hand)
1 cup water
cinnamon
nutmeg, to taste

Steps:

  • Mix coconut, oats, wheat germ, salt, sugar, nuts, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a large mixing bowl.
  • Add honey, vanilla, oil, and water.
  • Mix well again squishing and compacting with both hands.
  • Place granola on 2 cooking pans, can make some clumps and some flat, and cook at 150°C (300°F).
  • Take granola out every 10-15 minutes to mix on pan so it doesn't burn.
  • Cook until dry and has started to turn slightly brown throughout. Can take 1-2 hours (or more) to bake (I usually double the recipe and cook on 4 pans throughout the day to have more stored because of the long cooking time).
