Snow Dog's Hippie Trippin' Granola
thanks to
Dan Williamson
Recipe Ingredients:
- 1 60's folk rock album (Donovan, Jefferson Airplane, Mamas & Papas, or the like)
- 1 stick incense
- 5 C. rolled oats
- 1 1/3 C. wheat germ
- 1 C. sliced almonds
- 1 C. sunflower seeds (unsalted)
- 1 C. banana chips, crumbled
- 1 C. coconut
- 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
- 1/2 C. honey
- 1/2 C. vegetable oil
- 1 C. dried mangoes, dried blueberries, raisins, or the like (optional)
Cooking instructions:
Blow dust off turntable and clean needle. Play album and light incense. Mix all other dry ingredients except dried fruit together in a big bowl. Stir together vanilla, honey, and oil in a small bowl until well blended. Pour this mixture into dry ingredients and mix well with both hands (you can use a spoon or gloves if you're squeamish about this). Spread mixture onto 2 cookie sheets and bake at 300 degrees for 20-30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes. Let cool and store in airtight container.
Variations/Hints:
Omit the dried fruit and bake for only 20 minutes if you will be using the granola for Hippie Trippin' Granola Bars.
Comments:
For maximum hippie trippin' results, do not cut hair or shave for
6 months prior to making recipe. Do not substitute Jefferson Starship
or (worse yet) Starship for Jefferson Airplane CD or results will
be inedible.
