How to Make Megan's Granola
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine: 4 cups rolled oats, 1/2 cup wheat germ, 1/2 cup oat bran, 1/2 cup sunflower seeds, 1/2 cup sliced almonds, 1/4 cup chopped pecans, 1/4 cup chopped walnuts.

- Bring the wet ingredients to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Pour the hot mixture over the dry ingredients and stir until evenly coated.
