Homemade Granola

We made homemade granola from a recipe my friend Connie gave me.  It only requires a few ingredients...

You combine 1 cup of honey with 3/4 cup of canola oil in a microwaveable bowl...

Heat until runny.  (I would heat for 20-30 seconds and stir; then repeat.)

Then you pour this honey/oil mixture over 7 cups of old fashioned oats, stirring and pouring, stirring and pouring until well coated.  (You can add nuts - I did not.)

Then spread the oats onto 2 cookie sheets.  Bake at 325 for 10 minutes and take out and stir around.  Do this again - bake 10 minutes and stir.

Then you take the cookie sheets out every 2 to 3 minutes, stirring, for a total of 10 more minutes (for a grand total bake time of 30 minutes).

Let it sit on the cookie sheets until cool and then enjoy!  We put some in our cereal and topped vanilla yogurt with it too. 

Store in an air tight container.

Thanks for sharing Connie! 

The kids LOVE it... me too.
