Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
In a large bowl, whisk together the cinnamon, ginger, 1/4 teaspoon salt, honey, oil, maple syrup, water, and vanilla together. Add in the oats, pecans, rice cereal, and wheat germ. Toss to coat completely.
Spread the granola out on a baking sheet lined with parchment and bake until dry and crisp, but not yet browned, 30 to 35 minutes, stirring once or twice. Allow to cool completely before storing in an airtight container. Yield: 3 cups.

Be sure to buy the store brand of oatmeal instead of the kind most of us associate with anything oats. You will be shocked at the difference in price for plain rolled oats, more than double at my Kroger store.
