Granola

3/4 C oil
1/4 C brown sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 tsp. cinnamon

Heat ingredients until dissolved.

7 C oatmeal
1/3 C bran (I used all bran 'bran buds')
1 C nuts (I love to use almonds)
2 C coconut
1/2 C wheat germ (opt)
1 C raisins (opt)

Combine ingredients and stir well. Pour liquid over and coat dry ingredients well. Spread out on 3 or 4 cookie sheets. Bake @ 300 for 20 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes and watching closely so it doesn't burn.

I love to sprinkle this over yogurt with fruit for a nice healthy treat.
