Anne's Home-made Cereal

Because of the corn allergies that we have in this house, we can not buy cereal in a box from the store. So, we've spent years experimenting with granola recipes and have finally come up with one that we really enjoy as a cereal each morning.

Here it is:

Add to mixer and mix for several minutes:

3 c. steel cut organic oats (oats absorb more pesticide than any other grain, so organic is a good idea!)
3/4 c. packed brown sugar
1/2 c. flax seed
1/2 t. salt
1/2 t. cinnamon
1/2 t. nutmeg
1 c. chopped pecans (we break them in half by hand)
1/4 c. vegetable oil
1/2 c. honey

Place on a cookie sheet sprayed with (Canola) Pam.

Cook at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

add 3/4 c. raisins (if you add them before cooking, they swell)

store in an airtight container
