As much as we've all enjoyed the gelatin recipes the last few days, here's a welcome break.
This is soo easy to make, enjoy!
Granola
In a large bowl mix:
3 cups oatmeal
1 cup wheatgerm
2 tablespoons cinnamon
1 1/2 teaspoons nutmeg
3/4 cup milk chocolate morsels
1/2 cup chopped pecans
In a second bowl - mix this:
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 cup vegetable oil
3/4 cup honey
Other Ingredients:
1 cup dried cranberries
Mix the two bowls together (reserve cranberries for later) and put on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Put in the oven at 325 degrees for 30 minutes. You'll want to stir every 10 -11 minutes so the top doesn't burn. Once you pull it out of the oven, add the cranberries right away, mix and let it cool completely before storing.
A couple of helpful hints:
The granola won't seem crunchy when you pull it out of the oven, it will get crunchy as it cools, so don't be tempted to overcook.
Wheatgerm - I found it next to oatmeal in the breakfast aisle---UPDATE and by the way --- if you are like me and don't read labels very well -- refrigerate the Wheatgerm after opening or it will go rancid in a few days.
Enjoy!
