peanut butter granola

This recipe is SO easy to make, and so tasty... it seems that as soon as I make it... it's gone!! We got this recipe a couple of years ago from a dear, dear friend... and it is SO yummy!!!!!! Enjoy!

Peanut Butter Granola

5 c. oatmeal (not quick)

5 c. rolled six grain (if you don't have this, just use more oats)

2 c. coconut flakes

1 1/2 c. rapadura (or brown sugar)

1 t. salt

3/4 c. peanut butter

1 c. coconut oil (or other oil)

1/2 c. honey

2 t. vanilla

Directions:

* mix all dry ingredients together except the salt (I find it mixes better if you add it to the wet ingredients)

* combine all the other ingredients... be careful not to heat it too hot, as you don't want to damage the oil

* stir heated mixture into dry ingredients

* place on dehydrator trays

Cooking Instructions:

* dehydrate until crispy, usually 18-24 hours

* Cool and store in glass jars.

* I don't have the directions any more for cooking in the oven, but I think you just cook it at 350 degrees until crispy (about 1/2 hour ?), and you need to turn it every so often.
