Greetings,
This recipe comes to you from our first grade classroom
at Mountville Elementary School. Mountville is a small town located near
Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Many tourists visit our area throughout the year
to see the beautiful countryside and to learn about the Amish people.
The 25 students in our class enjoyed baking and eating
this delicious granola. We talked about nutrition during the month of March
and made this snack as a culminating activity. We hope you enjoy it.
Delicious Granola
This recipe makes a lot- about 4 quarts.
Preheat the oven to 275 degrees.
Pour into a very large bowl all the dry ingredients and
mix them well.
- 1 Box Oatmeal (about 1 pound)
- 1 Jar of Wheat Germ (about 12 ounces)
- 1 Small package Coconut (3 ounces)
- 2 Handfuls Sesame Seeds (about 1/4 cup)
- 1 Teaspoon Salt
- 1 Tablespoon Cinnamon
You can add other crunchy things you might like, such
as Chopped Nuts (about 1/2 cup; almonds are really good) or Sunflower Seeds.
Next add the wet things:
- 1 Jar Honey (12 ounces)
- 1/3 Cup Salad Oil
- 1 Tablespoon Vanilla
Mix everything into a big sticky mess.
Put half of the mixture on one cookie pan, and the other
half on another pan. Bake for about 45 minutes, until the granola is golden
brown. Wash the bowl and put things away while it bakes.
Let the granola cool on the cookie sheets for 5 to 10
minutes, until it is still warm but not too hot to touch. Then stir it up.
If you let item cool to long without stirring, it will get hard and solid,
sort of like a giant cookie. That's ok, but it will be harder to crumble.
After it is cooled, store the granola in a container with
a tight cover, or eat it.
Hope you enjoy this healthy snack.
Here are pictures of our class making the granola.

We are located adjacent to Long Beach which is about 20
miles southeast of Los Angeles. After our preparation for taking those "big
tests", we thought we should have some fun! So we found a great recipe
called "Puppy Chow" and yes, you can eat this dog food! It's great
for following directions carefully and makes a fun treat after concentrating
on our work. Enjoy!
