Mom's Granola





I love granola and eat it almost every morning with greek yogurt and fruit. I was recently at a Marriott hotel in Napa and they had the best "house granola" for breakfast. I tried to combine my Mom's recipe with a few additions from the house granola. I'm still working on perfecting it.......

7 c. quick oats
1 c. wheat germ
1 c. sunflower seeds
1 c sesame seeds
1 c. pumpkin seeds
1 c. oil
1 c. honey (or I use agave nectar)

Warm oil and honey in roasting pan. Then dump in rest of ingredients. Mix well and heat at 275 degrees for 1 hour - stir every 15 minutes with a wooden spoon. Cool then add raisins, dried cranberries, almonds and coconut...enjoy!
