Homemade Granola Is So Good!

This granola is so easy and quick. Pretty too!

2     Cups Old-fashion oats
1/2  Cup coconut
1/4  Cup oat bran or toasted wheat germ
1/2   teaspoon salt
1/2  Cup nuts (you can use slivered almonds, chopped pecans or walnuts)
1/3  Cup honey
2     Tablespoon oil (I use canola oil)
1     teaspoon vanilla extract
2     Cups dried fruit (raisins, figs, apricots, dates, cranberries or dried tart cherries) Mix it up!

Combine the dry ingredients and nuts in a large bowl. Pour honey, oil, vanilla, salt in next and mix well.

Bake at 350 degrees for 20 to 25 degrees, stirring half way through. Cook and then add the dried fruit. I store in a glass jar, but any airtight container will do.

You can eat this as a cereal or mix with plain vanilla yogurt or vanilla ice cream for a dessert or snack. It is loaded with healthy good stuff and plenty of fiber as well.
