Seedy Granola

RussianMama's Note:

I found this recipe on a website - cant remember where, though! Tastes a bit like a trail mix. The wet mixture, coconut, oat bran and granola is enough to give you a fantastic base recipe then add nuts or dried fruit or seeds to your taste. Use raw for all seeds and nuts. You can even use ground flax seeds in place of whole ones and it still tastes great.

I'm always happy to try out yet another granola recipe, but I did cut this one in half, & then gifted half of that to a neighbor couple! Made it as written & thoroughly enjoyed the combo of seeds used ~ Definitely something I'll be making again, for sure! Thanks for sharing it!
