Keep in mind this is NOT a low fat or low calorie granola. It is packed with good fats and lots of nutrients, but if you are watching your waistline, eat in moderation:)
In a large pan (a roasting pan works best but I use a 9X13) combine:
8 cups rolled oats (not instant oats, which are a processed food)
1 cup raw wheat germ (found in bulk at the health food store, high in B vitamins)
1 cup shredded coconut (found in bulk at the health food store—not the sugar kind)
½ cup freshly ground flax seed (grind fresh, in blender) I have used them whole as well.
1 1/2 cup nuts (raw cashews)
1/2 cup raw sunflower seeds
1/2 cup raw pumpkin seeds
¼ cup sesame seeds
2 Tbsp. cinnamon
Mix well.
Heat on stove until barely melted, stir together, and pour over dry mixture:
½ cup raw honey
1/4 cup black strap molassas
½ cup water
½ cup coconut oil
optional: 1 Tbsp. maple flavoring or vanilla
Mix liquid ingredients into dry ingredients until distributed evenly (this takes a few minutes). Bake at 250 degrees, stirring well every 20 minutes, for 45-90 minutes or until dry. Keep in pantry for up to 2 weeks in cool weather, or the fridge for up to 6 weeks.
