Granola

As promised, another whole wheaty, whole grainy, whole deliciousy recipe. Seriously this granola is very tasty. It's not too sweet, easy and inexpensive to make, won't break your teeth, and absolutely delicious with some yogurt. Oh, and it's good for you too. Unless you snack on it all day long (guilty as charged).

Granola*
Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
Combine in large mixing bowl:
2 cups whole wheat flour
6 cups rolled oats (not quick cookin')
1 cup shredded coconut
1 cup wheat germ
Blend together separately:
1/2 cup water
1 cup oil (I substituted some of the oil for water and it turned out fine)
1 cup honey or corn syrup (I recommend honey; it's better for you)
2 tsp. vanilla
1 Tb. salt
Add blended liquids to dry ingredients and mix thoroughly. Spread out on 2 greased cookie sheets and bake 1 hour, or until dry and golden. Store in covered containers.
Makes 2 1/2 -3 quarts.
Feel free to add in anything that you think would taste good; I added craisins and almonds.
