Makes 20 cups

10 cups rolled oats
1 cup wheat germ
½ lb. shredded coconut
2 cups raw sunflower seeds
1 cup sesame seeds
3 cups chopped walnuts, pecans or almonds
Raisins
1 ½ cup brown sugar
1 ½ cup water
½ cup honey
1 ½ tsp. salt
3 tsp. vanilla
1 ½ cup oil
½ cup molasses
2 tsp. cinnamon

Preheat oven to 300°. In large mixing bowl, combine first six ingredients; blend well. In large sauce pan, combine the rest of the ingredients except raisins; heat until sugar is dissolved, but do not boil. Pour syrup over dry ingredients and stir until well coated. Spread into five (5) 13x9 baking pans or jellyroll pans.

Bake 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally. For crunchier granola, bake 15 minutes longer. Cool. Add raisins or other dried fruit. Put into air tight containers and use within 6 months.
