Some of my children liked it, some did not. I do! I multiplied the recipe by six, but used less sesame seeds than called for. After cooling the granola, I added in flax seeds. Flax should not be heated. I allowed the children to add whatever dried fruit they wanted to their bowl. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

We are also making it through some tough times. I'll be making this recipe in the morning, with some substitutions to keep it more local, pecans from my trees and sorghum from a place in KY. We keep y'all in our prayers. We're also going through rough times. I know we'll come out the other side stronger and more grounded. Thanks for the recipe.

Over the last almost year I have been making my own things from scratch. When I want to have granola I get bulk from my favorite, mostly natural grocery store. It is not cheap though. I love you site by the way. Very inspiring. Living in an apartment complex as I do, I feel so far away from nature which I prefer. I plan on growing some of my own veggies in pots next season. Hopefully I will get it right this time. I never thought about making my own granola. Over the last almost year I have been making my own things from scratch.

For someone who does not have and oven (A kitchen for that matter!) it works great. I added sunflower seeds and cinnamon. Thanks!

My family is getting tired of oatmeal too, so they'll definitely be thanking you also.The recipe you posted says to use a non=stick skillet. I see you are using a cast iron one (Great choice I must say) Do you have problems with much sticking this way? I'm not wanting to set off the smoke alarms before breakfast. :P Thanks for the recipe. :) I really like the simplicity of of it.

I just inventoried my pantry and I have a lot of oats. I need to get the rest of my family eating them, since they don't share my love of hot oatmeal. Maybe granola will do the trick. Terry, I printed your recipe, too. I have sunflower seeds stored also. Thanks! I just inventoried my pantry and I have a lot of oats.

When you wrote earlier that you were cutting out granola, I felt so bad for you! (I love my granola in the morning!!). I have been playing around with my granola recipe to see how to cut out some ingredients and still have that toasty oats taste I love so well. <a href="http://terrycorum.com/green/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=1&Itemid=1" rel="nofollow">Here is my recipe</a>. You can leave out all the seeds and nuts, just add a little more oats, and it is just as good. I have also experimented using some peanut butter and that is delicious too!
