"An Edible Christmas" Cookbook by Irena Chalmers.
List of Ingredients
5 cups Rolled (not instant) oats
1 cup Raw wheat germ
1/2 cup Sunflower seeds
1 cup Honey or brown sugar
2 cups Coarsely chopped pecans
1 cup Powdered milk;
1/2 cup Sesame seeds
1 tablespoon Vanilla extract
2 teaspoons Salt
1 cup Vegetable oil
1/4 cup Water
1 cup Dried apricots coarsely chopped
1 cup Dried apples coarsely chopped
1 cup Dried prunes or dates, coarse chopped
1 cup Raisins Recipe
Preheat the oven to 250 degrees. Combine all, or as many of these ingredients as you can put together, in a huge bowl. You will probably have use your hands to turn the mixture over until it is thoroughly combined. Divide between 2 jelly-roll pans and toast in the preheated oven for 1 hour. Stir the ingredients well every 15 minutes, turning them over to be sure that nothing burns on the bottom. Remove the pans from the oven and allow the mixture to stand for about 1 hour until it has cooled completely. Pack into apothecary jars, old-fashioned candy jars, or other airtight containers. It keeps indefinitely---or at least 8 weeks, which is quite a long time. Makes about 16 cups.
