Combine in large bowl:
- 6 cups of uncooked regular oats
- 1 cup flaked coconut
- 1 cup sliced almonds
- ½ cup wheat germ
- ½ cup sunflower kernels
- sprinkling of cinnamon
Combine in another bowl:
- ½ cup Canola oil
- 1/3 cup apple juice
- 4 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- ½ teaspoon salt
Pour liquid mixture over dry mixture and stir well. Spread mixture evenly in large baking sheet and bake at 350 for 25-35 minutes (to degree of desired doneness), stirring every ten minutes or so. Cool.
Optional: Stir in raisins or dates or other dried fruit, if desired, or, for the holidays, candied fruit. You can vary this a little by adding other grains or nuts, such as flax seed, pumpkin seeds, etc. as they are available.
