I made homemade granola... - Page 3

**Fire Me Boy!** · 06-23-2007, 12:19 PM

Pretty good. It's not as sweet as a lot of the prepackaged granolas and I think it's better than most.

Big Batch Granola

1 box (6 cups) rolled oats
1 cup chopped nuts
1 cup wheat germ
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup honey (or honey mixed with maple syrup)
1/3 cup oil, any kind
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup dried fruit, optional

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Combine the first 5 ingredients. Warm the honey, add the oil and vanilla. Drizzle the honey-oil over the dry ingredients and toss to coat. Spread the mixture onto 2 cookie sheets. Bake about 30 minutes until golden, stirring every 10 minutes.

When done, remove from oven and stir in dried fruit if used. As the granola cools, it will lose its stickiness and become crunchy. Makes about 9 cups.

Life is pleasant.

And you know, GoChiefs... I've had more than one woman "appreciative" of my skills in the kitchen, including my wife.

And I'm fairly certain I've been laid in my kitchen more times in the past year than fightclub1983 has been... ever... anywhere.

You're so gay because you cook.

HARHARHAR.

Just make sure you don't go crazy on the fiber. Too much of that, you'll be shittin hard until kingdom come.

And you're the one that decided to call him "fruitloops."

That's so gay.

Exactly why I didn't add flax seed. Lotsa fiber in those little things.

**Fire Me Boy!** · 06-23-2007, 05:39 PM

Also why I added walnuts instead of any other nut. Too many of those and you'll be peeing out yer butt.

The stench of homophobia in this thread is strong.

To be honest it could be my feet. I just got off work.

I did, however, buy my raisins.

Oh great. A vanilla bean snob.

So, how many calories is this?
