5 cups old fashioned oats
1 cup chopped walnuts
1 cup chopped almonds
1 cup bran
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 tablespoons honey or agave nectar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon all spice
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 cup chopped crystallized ginger
1 cup dried cranberries
Directions:
Preheat an oven to 300 degrees F. Mix the oats, nuts and wheat germ in a large bowl.
In a smaller bowl, combine the butter, oil, honey, sugar, vanilla, and spices.
Microwave for 20 seconds (so that butter is melted) and stir the mixture well. Pour it over the dry ingredients and mix with your hands or a large spoon until the oats and nuts are evenly coated. Spread the mixture onto a large sheet pan (or two). You could also use a casserole dish but it will take longer to bake since it won't be as spread out.
Add the dried ginger and cranberries and store in a sealed container.
