• Mix until the oats and nuts are well coated with honey and butter/oil.
• Place in the oven for 30 minutes or until oats and nuts are well toasted, stirring frequently.

• I generally triple or quadruple this recipe. Cooking time is considerably longer. Just make sure you stir at least every fifteen minutes.
• Oil may be substituted for butter. Wheat germ can also be added but tends to make the texture grainy.
