Granola

6 cups rolled oats
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 cup coconut
1/3 c. sesame seeds
1/4 cup sunflower seeds
1/2 cup dried cranberries (or dried cherries are extra yummy)
1 cup almonds (sliced or whole – you decide how chunky you want it)

Mix all ingredients together except for the craisins.

In a separate bowl, whisk together:
1/2 cup oil
1/3 cup honey
2 tsp. vanilla

Pour over dry mixture.  Stir and coat thoroughly. 

Spread on a cookie sheet and bake at 350 degrees for 30 min.  Stir frequently to insure even baking.  Add craisins or any other dried fruit you’d like during the last 5 min. of baking.  It is important to watch this baking process very carefully.  The cereal should be golden brown.  Do not over-bake.
Makes 8 cups.
