Directions
Lightly heat your oven to 325°F (165°C). In a big bowl, toss together the oats, wheat germ, coconut, sunflower seeds, and almonds. In another bowl, whisk the oil, honey, boiling water, brown sugar, salt, and vanilla until it’s well combined. Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients and stir everything until it’s evenly coated. Spread the granola out in a thin, even layer on a large baking sheet. Pop it in the oven and bake for about an hour to an hour and a half, giving it a good stir every 30 minutes to make sure it toasts nicely. You’ll know it’s done when it smells toasty and looks lightly golden. Just keep in mind it’ll get crispier as it cools.
