Introduction

A friend gave me her granola recipe- the only thing I changed was using the splenda brown sugar, and adding some Flax seed. A friend gave me her granola recipe- the only thing I changed was using the splenda brown sugar, and adding some Flax seed.

Ingredients

    Oatmeal, 2 1/2 cups
    1 cup Flax seed
    1 cup Wheat germ
    1/4 cup splenda brown sugar
    1/2 tsp salt
    1/4 cup maple syrup
    1/4 cup canola oil
    1 TB water

Directions

Preheat the oven to 250ºF and set the rack in the center position. Grease a rectangular pan with a liberal coat of vegetable oil or cooking spray.

Combine the dry ingredients—oats, wheat germ, brown sugar, & salt—in a large mixing bowl and stir until well blended.

Cook the maple syrup, oil, and water together in a small saucepan over medium heat until the mixture reaches a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes.

Add the syrup to the mixing bowl and stir to thoroughly coat the dry ingredients.

Transfer the oat mixture to the pan and spread evenly with your hands or a spoon.

Bake for 1 1/2 hours, stirring every 15 minutes. If you’d like to include dry fruit or other mix-ins, add those at the 45-minute mark.

Let cool, then eat and enjoy!

I estimated 16 1/4 cup servings, and have no clue if this is right.
