Makes: 6 cups
Heat oven to 300*
2 cups rolled oats
1 cup chopped slivered or sliced almonds, chopped walnuts or peanuts. ( I do a combination of macadamia nuts and almonds)
1/2 cup coconut (optional)
1/2 cup shelled sunflower seeds
1/4 cup toasted wheat germ
1/2 cup honey or maple-flavored syrup ( I use 1/2 and 1/2, the cheap fake syrup actually taste better than true maple syrup)
2 tablespoons cooking oil
Dried fruit (Craisins, dried cherries, whatever sounds good to you)
1. In a large bowl combine the oats, nuts, coconut (if desired), sunflower seeds, and wheat germ. Stir together honey and cooking oil; stir into oat mixture. Spread evenly on a greased baking sheet with a rim. Bake in a 300* oven for 30-35 minutes or until lightly browned, stirring after 20 minutes.
2. Spread on a large piece of foil to cool. Break into clumps. Mix in your dried fruit if you desire. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week. (Or, store in freezer bags and freeze for 2 months.)
