1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup rye flour
1 cup yellow cornmeal
1 cup soy flour
1/2 cup wheat germ, toasted
1 cup unsweetened coconut, toasted
1/4 cup sesame seeds, toasted
1 cup sunflower seeds, toasted
1/2 cup chopped dates
2/3 cups raisins
oil
2 cups rolled oats
3/4 cup chopped roasted peanuts
1 tsp. salt
1 cup honey
1/2 cup canola oil

Stir the flours together. Toast them over medium heat in a frying pan. No oil is needed. Toast them until they are well browned, but not too dark. Watch carefully because once the flour gets hot it browns fast. Stir often.

Put flours in a large mixing bowl and stir in the wheat germ, coconut, sesame, and sunflower seeds.

Oil the pan and brown the oats until they are golden. Add these to the mixing bowl with the roasted peanuts. Stir everything together thoroughly.

Heat the honey, oil, and salt in a small saucepan until the mixture is thin. Pour this over the cereal, blending carefully to spread it evenly. Let the cereal cool in the mixing bowl, where it will form large lumps. When cool, break it up and pour into storage jars.

For a change, serve granola with apple juice poured over it instead of milk.
