Good morning everyone!  Just wanted to share this fabulous recipe, a recipe that we enjoy very much at home and one that is great to send to school with the kids for a snack with their yogurt (although I would make it nut free for the kids)  This is such an easy recipe, even a child could make it!
























Homemade granola

4 cups large rolled oats
1⁄4 cup wheat germ
1/4 cup wheat germ
1 cup any type of nut, coarsely chopped
1 cup dried cranberries
1⁄2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1⁄4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1⁄4 cup butter
1⁄2 cup honey

Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large bowl combine all dry ingredients and stir well to combine. In another bowl, melt butter with honey (microwave for about 1 minute) and pour over dry ingredients. Stir well. Spread a thin layer onto 2 baking sheets and bake until golden, about 20-25 minutes. Remove from oven and cool. Store  in an airtight plastic container or ziplock bag.  Makes 6 cups.  Keeps for about 2 weeks.

Serve over yogurt with freshly cut berries or fruit,  eat it plain or sprinkle it over ice cream.

Enjoy!  Let me know if you try this, I'm curious to hear what you think.

Have a wonderful day!
