Ingredients:
4 cups old-fashioned rolled oats (not quick cooking)
¾ cup raw pumpkin seeds
¾ cup raw unsalted sunflower seeds
1 cup coarsely chopped unblanched almonds
½ cup wheat germ
½ cup powered nonfat dry milk
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
¾ cup Safflower oil
½ cup maple syrup
½ cup honey or malt syrup (available in health food stores)
½ cup dried apricots, finely chopped
½ cup dried figs, finely chopped
½ cup golden raisins
½ cup black raisins
½ cup banana chips

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Stir together the oats, seeds, almonds, wheat germ,
dry milk, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and vanilla. Set aside.

In a small saucepan over medium heat, stir together the oil, maple syrup and honey. Pour over the oat mixture and toss with your hands or a wooden spoon until all the ingredients are moistened. Spread on a cookie sheet and bake for 30 minutes, stirring once. The edges tend to turn brown first, so stir carefully.
When lightly browned, remove from the oven and cool to room temperature. Loosen from the pan in chunks and add the dried fruits. Seal in airtight container.

Pairs Well With:

Pinot Gris	Dessert Wine
