Granola

This was my go to snack during both of my pregnancies.  The whole grain oats, seeds and nuts kept my metabolism and blood sugars level between meals.  from Sue Phillip

5 Cups Old Fashioned Rolled Oats

1 Cup Raw Wheat Germ

1 Cup Dry Milk (optional)

1 Cup Raw Nut Pieces

1 Cup Raw Sesame Seeds

1 Cup Raw Pumpkin Seeds

1 Cup Raw Sunflower Seeds

1/2 to 3/4 Cup Melted Coconut Oil (other your choice)

1/2 to 1 Cup Honey

1 Cup Water

1 Cup Dried Fruit

Mix the ingredients (except dried fruit) in a large bowl (first the dry then add the wet) to evenly moisten the mixture.  Pour the mixture into a large baking dish.  Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes.  Reduce the temperature to 250 degrees, bake for 60 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes.  When the granola is golden and lightly toasted, add the dried fruit.  Allow the granola to cool before storing in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Enjoy!
