I hadn’t thought about granola for a very long time, until my daughter-in-law mentioned she had it and how good it was. I asked her to share the recipe, and I had remembered I had seen my old granola recipe not too long ago.

I must have been about her age when I started making it. There are many variations you can make, according to your taste. I will share her recipe and the one I have had for 40 years. They change only in the amounts of oil and sugar—well, I guess in the other ingredients also.

Granola - from Alma

5 cups oats

½ c. ground flax seed (or guinoa-cooked?)

1 ½ c. shredded coconut...
