Ginger Almond Granola - cooking recipe

Ingredients

5 1/2 cups rolled oats
1/4 cup sunflower seeds
1/2 cup untoasted wheat germ
1/2 cup sliced almonds
1/2 cup coarsely chopped walnuts
1/2 cup unsweetened coconut
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup oil
2/3 cup mild honey
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 F and grease 9x13 baking dish.
Combine rolled oats, sunflower seeds, and wheat germ in dish; bake 10 minutes and remove from oven.
Add remaining dry ingredients (almonds through salt) to dish and stir to combine; add wet ingredients (oil through almond extract) and stir until completely combined.
Bake 18-20 minutes, stirring halfway through, until uniformly golden; granola will not be chunky yet, but will \"harden up\" as it cools.
Remove dish to rack and cool, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking to pan; store in airtight container.
