My daughter and I came up with this granola recipe and it is absolutely wonderful. Several of my children, who typically don't care for granola, loved it. I've tried many granola recipes and this tops them all. Store in an airtight container.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 34 servings

  • 8 cups rolled oats

  • 1 ½ cups wheat germ

  • 1 ½ cups oat bran

  • 1 cup sunflower seeds

  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

  1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
