Homemade Granola

4 cups regular rolled oats
1 cup shredded coconut
3/4 cup regular wheat germ
3/4 cup chopped nuts
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup nonfat dry milk
1/3 cup honey
1/4 cup canola or vegetable oil

Preheat oven to 325 F. Grease a large cookie sheet with cooking spray; set aside. Combine the first 6 ingredients in a bowl; mix well. In a small saucepan, blend honey and oil; heat gently to dissolve honey. Pour honey-oil into the dry ingredients, stirring well to thoroughly coat and mix. Spread the mixture evenly over the baking pan and bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until toasted to your liking. As it bakes, stir the Granola with a spatula every 5 minutes. Cool well and store at room temperature in an airtight container.

(To Skip a few steps I melt the Honey and oil in the microwave for 30 sec. And I stir the mixture once in the middle of cooking time. I stir after I take it out of the oven.)
