Easily 20 years ago my friend Mary gave me her granola recipe. It is the only granola my kids both young and old will eat. I thought I'd share it with you because it's so easy and yummy.
8 c. oatmeal 480g carbs
1c. wheatgerm (toasted) 48g
1c. sunflower seeds 28g
1c. sugar (198g) or Splenda
2 Tbls. cinnamon 12g
1c. vegetable or coconut oil
3/4 c. honey 210g
*In a large mixing bowl, mix the 5 above dry ingredients.
*In a saucepan mix the oil and honey and heat until boiling and you see a foam.
*Remove oil/honey from heat and pour over dry mixture and mix thoroughly until all the oats look damp.
*Pour into 2 large cookie sheets and bake at 325 for 13 minutes then turn granola over and put back in an additional 13 minutes.
*Let cool then place in airtight container.
*add raisins, nuts, dried cranberries anything you like
1c. = 35g carbs
