For several months, truly it has been that long, I have had hankerings for some homemade granola. I just simply have not taken the time to make a batch. Oh..... am I ever glad I took the time this morning right before I started on Charlotte's reading lesson. She pulled up her trusty stool and we proceeded to make my dreams come true right then and there. I am calling this
All Day Granola because you will eat it all day.....it is delicious! You might want to make two batches.....
All Day Granola
2 cups of oatmeal, whole grain milled
3/4 cups of broken pecans halves
1/2 cup sliced almonds
1/2 cup wheat germ
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/3 cup brown sugar
Mix all ingredients and add:
!/2 stick melted butter
2 tablespoons honey
Preheat oven to 300 degrees and bake for 15 minutes, stirring every five.
Add 1/2 cup of dried cherries and 1/2 cup of dried blueberries ( you may just add one if preferred).
Bake another15-20 minutes stirring every 5 minutes. Cool.

MMMMMM, I love breakfast. I can almost taste it. I just had my breakfast, quite late actually after running around with school drop offs etc. I am now enjoying my morning coffee.
Sounds yummy. Thanks for sharing the recipe. I usually have boxed raisin bran with fruit for breakfast. This would be a nice change. I just have to take the time to make it!
I too have vanilla yogurt every morning for breakfast. I used to buy granola to put in with it, but have gotten out of the habit....when did that happen I wonder? Sounds like I need to get back to it, it tastes so goooooood.
