Ingredients (use vegan versions):
- 6 cups rolled oats ( I use multi-grain)
- 1/2 cup sunflower seeds
- 1 - 2 cups chopped nuts ( I like almonds & walnuts)
- 1/2 cup wheat germ
- 1/3 cup flax seeds ( whole or ground)
- 1/4 cup vegan maple syrup
- 1/4 cup oil
- 1/4 cup turbinado vegan sugar
- 3 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 1/2 - 2 cups water
- 2 cups dried mixed fruit bits of your choice
Directions:
1. Mix all ingredients EXCEPT the fruit bits.
2. For granola without chunks, move to step 4.
3. For granola with chunks, Slowly stir in pot over low-
medium heat until ingredients become sticky and form clumps
(it will be somewhat hard to stir). If you need to add
more water, do so.
4. Dump mixture onto 2 large jelly-roll pans, spread
evenly.
5. Bake at 300 F for 1 - 1 1/2 hours (less time is needed
for the granola with no chunks), stirring every 15-20
minutes. Granola will be a golden brown when it is ready.
6. Cool granola by spreading it out on flattened paper
grocery bags.
7. Add dried fruit bits.
Store in an air tight container--it will last several
weeks, though ours is always eaten by then.
Serves: 6-10 cups
Preparation time: 2 hrs
