We got hooked on eating granola as breakfast cereal with milk when we started eating Cafe Fanny granola. Now we make our own version.
Granola
6 c rolled oats (not quick)
3/4 c sunflower seeds
9 Tb whole wheat flour
6 Tb wheat germ
3 Tb dry milk powder (optional)
3 Tb sesame seeds
1 c raw almonds, chopped, sliced or slivered
Salt to taste
1 1/2 c honey
3/4 c canola oil
raisins to taste
Preheat oven to 350 F. Combine all dry ingredients. Stir in oil and honey.
Spread on a baking sheet, and bake 20-30 minutes until golden brown, stirring occasionally. The browner it gets, the tastier it is, but be careful it doesn't burn.
Spread out on wax paper to cool. When cool, add raisins and store in an airtight container.

The quantities are very flexible. I often add more nuts and seeds than the recipe calls for, or leave something out if I don’t have it. I also sometimes add ground flax seed after it has baked, while it’s still hot.
