CRUNCHY LIKE GRANOLA


Vitamin V editor Sarah Bancroft has been making this granola recipe since she was a teen—and guarantees it won't turn you into a hippie. Not even close.


Mom's Granola

Combine in a large bowl:
8 C rolled oats
2 C wheat germ
2 C sunflower seeds
½ C shredded coconut
½ C sesame seeds
2 C sliced blanched almonds
1 C pecans, roughly chopped
2 T cinnamon

Heat in a saucepan until combined:
1 C honey
1 C canola oil

Method:
