The whole family enjoys it either eaten as cereal, or sprinkled over yogurt and fruit."

Ingredients

    4 Cups uncooked rolled oats
    ¼ C oat flour
    ½ C sunflower seeds
    ¼ C flax seeds
    ¼ C pumpkin seeds
    ½ t salt
    ¼ c agave syrup
    ¼ C honey
    ¼ C canola oil
    1 t vanilla extract
    ¾ C raisins

Tips

This is a very forgiving recipe. If you prefer nuts in yours, you can use them in place of the sunflower and/or pumpkin seeds. Likewise, you can replace or add to the raisins with another kind of dried fruit. Also, 1/2 cup any type of thick sweetener you prefer (molasses, maple syrup, etc.) may be used in place of the agave and honey. Or you could use only agave or honey, increasing the amount to 1/2 C.


Directions

1. Heat oven to 300F.

2. In a large bowl, mix the oats, oat flour, seeds, and salt together.

3. Stir together separately the liquid ingredients.

4. Add the liquid to the dry ingredients and thoroughly combine.

5. Spread onto a baking sheet with sides (I use a jelly roll pan). Bake in preheated oven 25 minutes.

6. Remove the baking sheet from the oven, dump the raisins over top, and stir thoroughly with a spatula, scraping the pan, to combine. This will keep it from over-browning on the bottom and edges.

7. Return to the oven and bake an additional 12 minutes.

8. Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet. As it cools it will get crispy.

9. Store in a sealed container and use within 10 days. (May be stored longer in the refrigerator or freezer.)
