GRAYCE'S HOME MADE SNACK'IN GRANOLA

Hi everyone.  What a wonderful day yesterday.  Nick's graduation and a great party here afterwards. It was truly a beautiful day!

I am a little late with my post today.  I have been cleaning up after the party etc etc.  But here is the recipe for my Granola.  This is for snacking.  I always made it for our ski trips.  Great energy.  Also good for the beach, for ball games etc.  Better than anything you can buy.  Only drawback is that you just can't stop eating it.  Sooo Yummy!

GRAYCE'S HOME MADE SNACK'IN GRANOLA

6 cups of bulk granola (Trader Joe's has this, or Whole Foods, your favorite kind)
2 cups Bulk Banana chips
2 cups Raisins
2 cups Raw Almonds
1 tsp Cinnamon
1Stick of unsalted Butter
1 cup Honey

Set oven at 300 degrees.  Spread Granola in a large cookie sheet with rim.  Cut butter into pieces and put on top.  Bake in the oven for about 15 minutes.  Remove and stir to mix.  Sprinkle with cinnamon.  Bake for about 8 minutes more.  Remove and add the banana chips, raisins, almonds.  Bake for about 5 or 6 minutes.  Remove from oven and stir to mix.  Add 1 cup honey and mix very well.  Spread out on cookie sheet and bake again for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring once more.  Remove from oven and let cool completely.  Break it up and put into individual bags or plastic containers.  Don't worry about how long it will keep, it won't be around that long.  You can make different kinds by adding orange flavored cranberries, walnuts etc. Make it soon, it is a healthy treat.  Especially for kids playing sports.

Note:  When it is finally done, take a large piece of parchment paper, larger than the cookie sheet, and spread the Granola out on that to cool.

Thaks for stopping in today
