Answer 1

I just made some last night! I have adapted this recipe to be a moist bar or crunchy lose granola like cereal. I eat it as cereal with milk also so it is versatile. In a 9 x 13 pan put 1/4 c veg oil(I use canola),1/4 c wheatgerm,1/3 c honey,1/3 c brown sugar,2 Tblsp. water,1/2 tsp. salt,1 tsp. vanilla.Mix well and then add 3 c oatmeal and mix well. I change up the next ingredients whenever I want a change. 1/2 c chopped peanuts,sunflower kernels,coconut flakes, almonds, raisins, dried figs,& dried cranberries.I usually put raisens and nuts into one batch. Spread it out evenly. In a preheated oven at 225 degrees, bake and stir every 15 min. It will be in clumps if you don't overstir or crumbs if you do! Store in an airtight container. BARS: Add 1/3 c water instead of 2T and add1/2 c honey instead of 1/3c. Mix well and press firmly into pan.Bake at 225 for 45 min.into squares and put in baggies or sealed plastic containers.All of the crumbs that are left in the pan are great to eat as cereal.My grandkids, kids, and neighbors all love these. I hope you enjoy them!
