WALNUT CINNAMON GRANOLA 

Oil a baking sheet                                       

Preheat oven to 350 degrees 

Preparation time: 10 minutes
Yield: 24 servings

6-cups rolled oats or quick oats

1-cup whole-wheat flour

1-cup nuts, smashed               

1-cup sunflower seeds            

1/4-cup sesame seeds

3-teaspoons cinnamon

1/4-cup coconut oil

2/3-cup maple syrup 

1/2-cup water  

In the standing mixing bowl, combine all the dry ingredients.  

Add the oil, maple syrup, and water and mix until uniform. More moisture makes the granola clump up which I like since I also eat it for a dry snack.  Less moisture makes the granola finer.  

Spread the mixture out on a baking sheets.  Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes or until golden.  Stir half way through and rotate the baking pan. 

After the granola is baked add 1 cup of any of the dried fruit as an option.  Store the granola in a plastic bag in the refrigerator.
