Almond Crunch Granola
1/2 cup raisins
1 cup hot water or unsweetened apple juice
3 cups uncooked rolled oats
1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
1/2 cup sesame seeds
1/2 cup sunflower seeds
1/2 cup soy nuts, flakes or grits
1/4 cup dry milk powder
1/2 cup wheat germ
1/4 cup wheat and oat bran
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup chopped or sliced almonds
Preheat oven to 250ºF. Soak raisins in water or juice overnight. In large bowl, combine all dry ingredients. Pour water or juice from raisins into a cup. Pour this liquid over the oat mixture and mix to moisten the grains. Spread this mix on two cookie sheets sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Bake for 1 hour stirring every 15 minutes. Add raisins, turn off heat, and let mix sit in oven another 15 minutes. Should be dry and crackly; if not, leave in oven a little longer with heat on.
