When The Happy Housewife asked for granola recipes, I knew I had to share mine. I have adjusted this recipe for the last several years and we think it is about perfect! It makes a large batch but doesn't last long at our house! Our three year old is usually up at 7:00 asking for "oatmeal". We all like to eat it with my homemade yogurt! The peanut butter flavor is very mild but we think it adds just the right touch!
1 cup oil
1 cup honey
1/4 cup water
1 cup peanut butter
Heat until warm and combined.
Add 2 tsp vanilla.
12 cup rolled (old fashioned) oatmeal
2 cup wheat germ
2 cup coconut
2 cup sunflower seed
Mix dry ingredients together. Pour in oil mixture and mix well. Spread in two cookie sheets. Toast in 275 degree oven for one hour. Stir every 15 minutes.
Tips: I place one pan on the upper oven rack and one on the lower rack and switch them each time I stir. After cooling, raisins or other dry fruit may be added, but we usually don't. You may also add nuts to the recipe. I let out the nuts in an effort to lower the cost. I buy most of the ingredients at our local bulk food store. Raw wheat germ and raw sunflower seeds are much cheaper then toasted. I figure I'm going to toast them in the recipe anyway!
