Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1 1/2 cups rolled oats; 1/3 cup wheat germ; 2 tablespoons granulated white sugar or agave nectar; 2 tablespoons roasted sunflower seeds; 2 tablespoons salted roasted pumpkin seeds; 1/4 cup brown sugar; 1 teaspoon kosher salt; 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon; 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom; 2 tablespoons honey; 2 tablespoons molasses; 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (I used safflower oil); 1/2 cup dried fruit, minced (I used a combo of dried apricots, currants and tart cherries)

Servings: persons

1 1/2 cups rolled oats
1/3 cup wheat germ
2 tablespoons granulated white sugar or agave nectar
2 tablespoons roasted sunflower seeds
2 tablespoons salted roasted pumpkin seeds
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons molasses
1 tablespoon vegetable oil (I used safflower oil)
1/2 cup dried fruit, minced (I used a combo of dried apricots, currants and tart cherries)

1
Preheat the oven to 250F. In a large mixing bowl, combine all the dry ingredients except the dried fruit and mix well with your hands.
2
In a small bowl, mix the honey, molasses and vegetable oil together until well combined. Add to the dry mixture and mix well with your hands until everything is well coated with the honey-molasses-oil mixture.
3
Spread evenly in a baking sheet and bake for 30-35 minutes. It's important to stir the mixture every 8-10 minutes pulling all the mixture from the edges and corners into the middle of the baking sheet and re-spreading the mixture. You might also want to rotate the cookie sheet after each stirring.
4
It's done when the mixture starts to darken a shade or two and you can smell the spices in the mixture. Remove from the oven and immediately fold in the dried fruit. Keep folding for a minute so that the dried fruit is warmed by the mixture.
5
Let dry until crispy and store in sealed baggies or jars.
