Yum, Yum & Yum!

I made granola on Tuesday. I have one word. YUM!

Pickle and I have been eating this for breakfast with yogurt or milk. YUM.

My sweet Man even likes it! YUM.

I think this would be fabulous served warm from the oven over fresh, vanilla ice cream.

I found inspiration in blog land (but can't find my bookmark-will add if I do), but 'tweaked' it to my taste and what I had on hand.

Mamma's Granola

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line two baking pans with foil or parchment.

Mix in a large bowl: 6 c. oats, 2 c. crisp brown rice cereal, 2/3 c. wheat
germ, 2/3 c. ground flax, 2/3 c. pepitas, 2 1/3 c. dried fruit (pineapple,
papaya, apples, cranberries, apricots), 1 t. cinnamon, 2 t. salt

Bring to boil in a sauce pan over medium heat: 1/2 c. brown sugar, 1 c. raw
honey, 3/4 c. olive oil. Remove from heat; add 1 t. vanilla.

Pour sauce over dry mixture and stir until evenly coated. Pour half of
granola onto each baking pan, spread evenly.

Bake until crispy, about 20 minutes total; stir halfway through baking.

Cool on baking pans, then break apart.

YUM!
