Recipe: Lu's Granola
based, sort-of, on a recipe I found on allrecipes.com called Megan's granola

this makes a LOT of granola, enough to fill a big canister for yourself, a big canister for a good friend and a mini canister for a second tier friend :)

one canister original oatmeal (not quick oats)
3/4 c oat bran
3/4 c wheat germ
1 c chopped almonds
1 c chopped pecans

1/4 c honey
1/8 c maple syrup (yes, the real stuff)
1/4 c brown sugar
1/2 c vegetable oil
1 t vanilla
1 t cinnamon

3/4 c raisins
3/4 c chopped dried apples

mix the first part in a big bowl. in a saucepan put all of the second portion (not the oats mix), on medium heat, bring to a boil while stirring. Pour over oats mix, mixing untill covered. Pour on a foil or parchment covered baking sheet and bake at 375 for 20 min, stirring once. Let cool, pour into big bowl, mixing with dried fruit, store in air-tight canister. Enjoy! (great with yogurt in the morning!)
