Ingredients
- 5 1/2 ounces oats (2 cups old fashioned)
- 1 1/2 cups slivered almonds
- 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds (shelled, aka pepitos)
- 1/4 cup sunflower seeds
- 1 to 2 teaspoons ground ginger
- Salt, pinch of
- 3 1/2 tablespoons melted butter
- 5 to 6 tablespoons honey (I use maple syrup)
How to Make
-
Step 1: Combine the ingredients in the crock pot set on "high". Mine is the large size so not sure how this would work with a smaller crock. Stir after 30 minutes then keep an eye on it. It is supposed to take 2 hrs but I would watch it closely after the first hour. Once it starts to brown, it can burn quickly!

Step 2: Allow to cool and then add dried fruit if desired.

Step 3: Note: Substitutions are endless... for butter you could use coconut oil. I have already mentioned honey and maple syrup, you could probably try brown sugar. Obviously the ginger could be replaced with cinnamon. Have fun!
