Homemade Granola Cereal

Ingredients

• 4 1/2 cups rolled oats
• 2 cups whole wheat flour
• 1 1/4 cups honey
• 3/4 cup wheat germ
• 1/2 cup chopped raw cashews (optional)
• 1/2 cup chopped raw almonds (optional)
• 1/3 cup vegetable oil
• 1/4 cup flaked coconut (optional)
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon salt

Directions

Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).

Mix oats, flour, honey, wheat germ, cashews, almonds, vegetable oil, coconut, brown sugar, vanilla, and salt together in a large bowl; spread onto a baking sheet.

Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes, stir, and increase heat to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Continue cooking until the granola is golden brown, about 10 minutes more. Cool granola completely before storing in an air-tight container.
