Cooking duration: 105 minutes

 

Ingredients:

1/2 cup sliced almonds

1/4 cup coconut oil

1 cup golden raisins

2 Tablespoons honey

4 cups old fashioned oats

1 cup pecan pieces

1 cup pepitas

1/2 cup dark raisins

1/4 teaspoon salt (optional)

1 cup sweetened coconut flakes

2 teaspoons real vanilla extract

Equipment:

microwave

bowl

oven

frying pan

Cooking instruction summary:

Preheat the oven to 275 F. In a large bowl, mix together the oats, coconut, pecans, pepitas, and almond slices. In a separate small bowl, add the coconut oil (it will be solid at room temperature), honey and vanilla. Microwave on high for 30 seconds, then stir to finish melting the coconut oil. Stir in the salt. If the coconut oil still isn't melted, microwave just a little longer and stir again to mix and melt away any chunks.Pour the coconut oil mixture over the oat mixture in the big bowl and stir to coat all the oats and nuts in the oil mixture. Pour the granola into a large flat jelly roll pan with a lip and smooth it out so it's one even layer. Roast in the oven for 1 1/2 - 2 hours, stirring every 15 minutes, until the granola is golden brown and nicely toasted. (I roasted it for 1 hour 45 minutes.)Sprinkle the raisins over top and stir a bit to mix them into the mixture. Store in an airtight container.

Food Joke

Four surgeons were taking a coffee break and were discussing their work. The first said, "I think accountants are the easiest to operate on. You open them up and everything inside is numbered." The second said, "I think librarians are the easiest to operate on. You open them up and everything inside is in alphabetical order." The third said, "I like to operate on electricians. You open them up and everything inside is color-coded." The fourth one said, "I like to operate on lawyers. They're heartless spineless, gutless, and their heads and their ass are interchangeable."
