Homemade crunchy Muesli

Ingredients:

3 1/2 cups of rolled oats
1/2 cup of sesame seeds
1/2 cup of pumpkin seeds
1/2 cup of flaked almonds
Dried fruit such as raisins, or currants ( I used apricots cut into pieces as little or as much as you want)
1/2 cup of wheatgerm ( found in wholesale food stores)

 1/3 cup of honey
1/3 cup sunflower oil
1/3 cup soft brown sugar


Method:

1.  Preheat the oven to 150C (fan oven) In a large deep roasting tray combine all the dry ingredients and mix until well combined. Make sure that the oat mixture is a thin even layer over the tray.
2.  Over a medium heat, add the honey sunflower oil and soft brown sugar. Stirring until dissolved and well combined.

3. Pour the liquid over the dry oat mixture and stir to ensure all the oats are covered.

4. Place in the oven for an hour checking every 15 minutes to stir and ensure that the honey mixture is not burning. The mixture will be done when the oats are nice and brown. Leave to cool completely and transfer to a air tight container.

Note: Other nuts could also be used, such as hazelnuts.
