You Can't Be Crunchy Without Granola


**Warning the following recipe is highly addictive and those you make it for will demand it again and again***Homemade granola is one of the ultimate comfort foods. This simple recipe tastes much better than the store bought and is much cheaper to make. Its also a great base for homemade granola bars and cereal and is wonderful sprinkled on yogurt.


Homemade Granola
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1/3 cup honey
5 cups oatmeal
1/2 cup dry milk
3/4 tsp cinnamon


Mix brown sugar, oil, and honey in a saucepan. Heat over medium heat until sugar is dissolved. Combine dry ingredients in a 9x12 pan. Pour sugar mixture over dry ingredients and mix well. Bake at 375 degrees for ten minutes. You can either enjoy just like this or add in a 1/2 cup of raisins, nuts, or coconuts after baking.
