Directions

Preheat oven to 350F and line a baking sheet with parchment or SilPat.
In a bowl, toss together the oats, wheat germ and spices.
Add the apple butter, maple syrup, vanilla and salt, stirring well to evenly coat everything.
Spread in one even layer on the baking sheet.
Bake for 25 minutes, then stir to break apart and bake a further 20-25 minutes until well browned and firm.
Cool 10 minutes then fold in the dried apples and cool completely on the tray.
