Homemade Granola

This is what I'm baking for breakfast tomorrow.  The whole house smells delicious right now.


Quantity : 36 servings
Preparation : 10 min Cooking : 35 min Cooking Dish : 30x38 cm
180 calories/serving

Ingredients
vegetable oil spray, for the baking sheet
4 cups rolled oats 400 g
2 cups unsweetened coconut flakes 200 g
2 1/2 cups hazelnuts, shelled, coarsely chopped 260 g
1/4 cup canola oil 65 mL
3 cups pumpkin seeds 400 g
1/3 cup maple syrup 85 mL

Method
Preheat the oven to 190°C/375°F. Lightly oil or butter a large baking sheet (about 30 x 38 cm).
Combine the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Pour the oil and maple syrup over the dry ingredients then toss well. Spread the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the middle of the oven for about 30 to 40 min or until golden brown and crispy. Stir every 10 min to brown evenly and avoid burning the mixture.
Let the granola cool down: It will become crispier and dry as it cools. Make sure to break up any large clumps of granola while the mixture is still warm. Once it has completely cooled, transfer it to an airtight container or plastic bag.

Observations
The granola will keep for several weeks in the refrigerator; up to 3 months in the freezer.

Week #2 Challenge: Paper . . . and I mean ALL of your paper.

Annual Organization Challenge Week #2   How did you make out with last week's challenge? Did you find your work table? Here's this week's challenge: Your challenge this week is to  S.P.A.C.E.  your paper - - and I mean ALL of your paper: cardstock, patterned paper, specialty papers, and all those SCRAPS! SORT:  Bring all of your paper to one area. Sort it all into piles: KEEP, SELL, DONATE, TRASH PURGE:  bag up, and assign a price to paper bundles that you want to SELL at a garage sale or online, and put the bags in the garage sale box. Throw out the TRASH pile. Bag up the DONATE pile and immediately make arrangements for drop-off/pick-up or put  in your vehicle. ASSIGN:  separate your paper into categories that make sense to you.
