Granola
Ingredients:
5 c old fashioned rolled oats
2 c wheat bran cereal
1 c blanched whole or slivered almonds
1 c pecans (pieces)
1/2 c sunflower seeds
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 c maple syrup
1/2 c sunflower or canola oil
1 c dark seedless raisins
Directions:
Heat oven to 300 degrees. Line large roasting pan (or broiling pan would work too) with aluminum foil.
In large bowl, combine oats, bran, nuts and cinnamon. In a quart saucepan, heat syrup and oil until bubbles appear around the side of the pan. Pour mixture over dry ingredients and toss to mix well. Spread over foil lined pan. Bake 30-40 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes, until crisp and golden. Don't let it get too dark.
Stir in raisins after cooled and store in an air-tight container.
