6 steps

Ingredients

  • 4 cups oats
  • 2 cups puffed wheat cereal
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened coconut
  • 1/2 cup bran flakes
  • 1/4 cup sliced almonds, toasted
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup flax seed
  • 2 tablespoons cinnamon
  • 1 1/2 cups tropical fruit juice
  • 1/8 cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • cooking spray
  • 1/4 cup craisins
  • 1/4 cup dried apricot (chopped)

Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 325°.
  2. 2
    Combine first 8 ingredients in a large bowl.
  3. 3
    Combine the juice in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil; cook until reduced to 2/3 cup.
  4. 4
    Remove from heat; stir in honey. Slowly pour juice mixture and oil over oat mixture, tossing to coat.
  5. 5
    Spread oat mixture evenly onto two baking pans coated with cooking spray. Bake at 325° for 40 minutes or until golden, stirring frequently (keep an eye on it while cooking, the sugars in the juice cause it to brown really quickly).
