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.
