Peanut Butter Granola
- 4 12 cups old fashioned oats (uncooked)
- 1 cup wheat germ
- 1 cup sunflower seeds
- 12 cup nonfat dry milk powder
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 13 cup dark brown sugar, packed
- 3 tablespoons apple juice
- 2 tablespoons unsulphured molasses
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 34 cup peanut butter
- 1 cup raisins
- 1 cup almonds, chopped
- Position the racks in the top and bottom thirds of the oven; preheat the oven to 300 degrees.
- Mix the oats, wheat germ, sunflower seeds, powdered nonfat dry milk, and cinnamon in a large bowl and set aside.
- Whisk the brown sugar, apple juice, molasses, and honey in a medium saucepan until the sugar dissolves.
- Whisk in the peanut butter until creamy.
- Pour the mixture over the dry ingredients and toss well with a wooden spoon.
- This takes quite a while because the mixture is a bit stiff and there's no added oil.
- Spread the granola onto two large, lipped baking sheets over parchment paper and bake for 20 minutes, stirring twice at seven minute intervals.
- Stir in the nuts and reverse the sheets top to bottom and back to front.
- Continue baking until dry, lightly browned, and very aromatic, about 25 more minutes, stirring often.
- Remove from the oven and place on wire racks for 5 minutes, and then stir 1/2 cup of raisins into the mixture on each sheet.
- Cool completely, about two hours.
- Transfer to covered bowl and store at room temperature for up to 1 month.
