I made a very simple granola last night that was super-cheap.
3 cups oatmeal
1 cup Grape Nuts (purchased on sale of course)
Any kind of nuts (I didn’t use any nuts)
1/4 c water
3/4 c brown sugar
dash vanilla
dash salt
1 tsp cinnamon
In a large bowl combine the two cereals. Mix water and brown sugar in a small microwavable save bowl. Microwave on high 2-3 minutes until sugar is completely dissolved. Stir in vanilla, salt and cinnamon. Pour over the cereal mixture and stir to coat. Spread on a foil-lined baking pan. Cook at 275 for 40 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool completely and store in an airtight container. Serving size is 1/2 cup.
Optionally add dried fruits after mixture has cooled.
DH ate it this morning mixed with yogurt. I had mine with milk and half a banana. YUM!
