Recipe: Homemade Granola

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I posted this once with oats, and wanted to give you my modified recipe. This is really good and your children might even like it. My husband has started eating it, and every once in awhile he'll buy cereal from the store, and now doesn't like the store brands!

HOMEMADE GRANOLA:

1/3 cup honey

1/2 cup chunky peanut butter

1 tsp. vanilla

1/2 tsp. cinnamon

1-1/2 cups GF corn flakes

1-1/2 cups GF rice crisps

1/2 cup slivered almonds (you can use any combination of nuts)

1/2 cup chopped walnuts

1/2 cup chopped pecans

1/2 cup sunflower seeds

1 cup golden raisins or dates (I prefer dates)

1 cup dried cranberries (or any dried fruit)

Heat honey, peanut butter, vanilla and cinnamon together over low heat. Mix together all ingredients with the honey mixture, except raisins and cranberries. Pour mixture onto a cookie sheet, spread to uniform thickness, and bake in a preheated 300 degree oven for 20 minutes.

Remove from oven, stir on cookie sheet and let cool. When mixture is cooled, add raisins and cranberries, mixing thoroughly. Store in air-tight container. Makes approximately 8 cups.
