Granola 7 Wives Inn

My mother in law stayed at the 7 wives Inn, which is a bed and breakfast in St. George, Utah.    This is the granola that they served at the Inn.  I have had the recipe for ever.  It is the one that I make all the time.  I love it.  I always add more peanut butter because I really like the peanut butter flavor.  Whenever we hike, I add protein powder and make this for our food on the trail.  Can add anything that you want .I like to add  cranberries, any kind of dried fruit. 


8 c. oatmeal
1 1/2 c. wheat germ
1 c. almonds
 1/4 c. sunflower seeds
1 c. coconut
 1 c. cashews
 Mix the above together in a big bowl.

1 1/2 c. brown sugar
1/2 c. peanut butter.  ( I put 1 cup recipe calls for 1/2)
 1/2 c. oil
 1/2 c. honey
 1/2 c. water
2 t. vanilla
 Boil the water, honey, peanut butter, oil and vanilla.  Pour over all the rest of the ingredients. 
Put on 2 cookie pans and bake in a 200 degree oven for 2 hours.
