Granola


I'd never really thought about making my own granola, Lonnie suggested I give it a try. but Max loves to eat only the Bunches from Honey Bunches of Oats and I decided I could make something to replace it.

I used what I had in my cupboard...

all aprox
4 cups oats
1 cup inseed
1/2 cup peanuts
Mix together

On stove top:
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 honey
1/2 brown sugar
3T backstrap molasses
Cook until boiling for 2-3 mins

Slowly stir liquid mix into dry, mixing to cover. Pour into pan and put in over set to 350 degree F for 20-30 mins. Stir every 10 mins until completely covered. Remove from oven. Stir every 5-10 min until cooled. This last step is very imprortant or the mixture will turn into a brick. Store in an airtight container.
