Homemade Peanut Butter Granola Cereal

This homemade granola recipe with peanut butter is a Lynch family favorite!  We love it so much, when I make it, I always quadrupole the recipe and make two 8x13 pans at a time so that I don't have to make it daily.  Then I can put the rest away for another day.

 5 cups rolled oats
3/4 cups brown sugar
1/3 cup honey
1/3 cup peanut butter

other extras such as dried fruit, berries, or nuts

Place rolled oats in a 9x9in pan, and preheat oven to 375F and set aside.

In a small pot, mix brown sugar,  honey and peanut butter. Stir, as you bring to a light boil.

Pour peanut butter mixture over the rolled oats, and mix in thoroughly.

Place in oven and cook for 15 Minutes.

Remove, break up any large chunks, and stir in any extras such as dried fruit, berries or nuts.
(We throw in a 1/2 cup of raisins, and some dried apples, and today I added a few chocolate chips)

Store any leftovers in an air tight container.

We like to double the recipe, and put half away.

1 cup dehydrated apples (or other fruit)
