- 7 c. thick oat flakes (rolled oats), uncooked

In a very large bowl, combine the oats, coconut, wheat germ, nuts,
seeds and salt. Mix well. In a separate bowl, whisk together the oil,
maple syrup and vanilla. Pour over dry mixture in bowl, stirring and
tossing till everything is very well combined (your bare hands are the
best tools for this step).
Spread granola on a couple of large, ungreased baking sheets. Bake
in a preheated 250 degree oven for 2 hours, tossing mixture every 15
minutes or so. Remove pans from oven and cool completely. Transfer granola
to a large bowl, and mix in raisins and any additional dried fruit desired
– dates, figs, currants, dried cranberries or blueberries, etc.
Store in a tightly closed container at room temperature.
