Homemade Granola!

¾ cup brown sugar
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1/3 cup honey
1/3 cup 100% pure maple syrup

Boil until sugars melt, stir occasionally

In 13 x 9 Pyrex put:

7 cups oatmeal (Rolled Oats, often called 'old fashioned'.)
1/3 cup dry milk (comes in a box on baking isle)
½ cup sunflower seeds
½ cup coconut
Dried fruit (optional)

1. Pour sugar over and mix.
2. Bake at 325 for 15 minutes. Stir.

3. Repeat step 2 as many times as you like for desired chewy/crunchiness texture. (I prefer to bake 15 min, stir, and then bake for 5-8 min.) This is really good warm with milk! Store in air tight container or zip lock bag. (This also makes great neighbor gifts around the holidays, is a great snack and is a delicious breakfast!
