Submitted by Chef #243444

"My grandmother has always made this granola and still does. It has lots of nuts, honey and raisins in it and is very hearty. You can customize it any way you want (coconut, almonds, sunflower seeds, etc.) but I have always liked this recipe"

this is a great recipe you can add as much or as little as you like so far as ingredients go. It is not a cluster type granola so it makes great cereal or yogurt topping. We even used it for a crumple on top a berry cobbler type recipe. Very good and very versatile noce to have on hand and makes a lot. Usually I have two oatmeal containers full when I am done.
