Nutty Skillet Granola
Nutty Skillet Granola
2 1/2 - cups old fashioned oats, uncooked
1 - cup chopped or sliced almonds
1/2 - cup chopped pecans
1/2 - cup sunflower seeds (shelled)
2 - tablespoons wheat germ, optional
2 - tablespoons ground flax seed, optional
1/4 - cup coconut oil
2 - tablespoons maple syrup
1/2 - cup Honey or brown sugar
1 - cup raisins or dried fruit, optional
In a large bowl, mix oats, nuts, wheat germ, and flax seed; set aside. In a large skillet over medium heat, combine oil, maple syrup and honey or brown sugar.
Cook stirring constantly until sugars melt and the mixture starts to bubble. Add oat mixture; stir well to coat completely.
Reduce heat to medium - low. Cook stirring occasionally until mixture begins to sizzle and toast 7 - 10 minutes.
Be careful not to burn the mixture. Remove from heat and stir in raisins or other dried fruit.
Spread the mixture out flat on a baking sheet and let cool until the granola hardens. If the granola does not harden.
Add the baking pan to a 350 degree oven and bake for about 5 -10 minutes. Watch carefully so the granola does not get too brown.
Cool for 30 minutes and then transfer to an airtight container.
Makes about 7 cups.
