How I Make Granola

I love cooking and making my own food, it is so satisfying to me. I make just about anything home made. My husband loves my cooking and every day is a new experience eating in our home. I also take great pride in how the finished product looks and tastes.
I hope you enjoy this as much as I do. Cooking healthy and using the Watkins products that I love make all the difference to me. Enjoy!

Ingredients:
4 c rolled oats
1 c wheat germ
1/2 c flax seed meal
1/2 c brown sugar
1/2 c raw sunflower seeds
1/2 c chopped pecans
1/2 c sliced almonds
1 tsp Watkins Cinnamon
1 1/2 tsp Watkins Sea Salt
1/3 c Watkins Original Grapeseed Oil
1/4 c honey
1 tsp Watkins Vanilla extract
1/2 c water

Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
2. In a large bowl, mix together the oats, wheat germ, flax seed meal, brown sugar, sunflower seeds, pecans, almonds, cinnamon and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the oil, honey, vanilla and water. Pour the wet ingredients over the dry, and mix until evenly blended. Spread in a greased 9x13 baking pan or roaster.
3. Bake for 1 hour in the preheated oven, stirring every 20 minutes, or until toasted. Let cool completely before storing in an airtight container.
