    I made this to mix in with my yogurt smoothies to get a bit more of a substantial breakfast. It was easy to make, and I love it. I used craisins and dried plums becuase that was the dried fruit I had in my drawer...pretty much anything would work...Pi and I ate this in Ireland for breakfast. I was a fan.

    Ingredients

    • 1 1/2 c. rolled oats
    • 1 c. rolled barley (I didn't have this, I used more oats)
    • 1/3 c. oat bran
    • 1/3 c. wheat germ
    • 1/4 c. almonds
    • 1/4 c. hazelnuts
    • 1/4 c. pepitas (pumpkin seeds)
    • 1/4 c. raisins
    • 1/4 c. chopped dates
    • 1/4 c. chopped dried pears

    Directions

    1. Toast nuts and pepitas in the oven (at 325F or so) until lightly browned and toasty-smelling, about 6-10 minutes. Meanwhile, process the oats and barley: place in the bowl of a food processor and pulse several times until some of the grains are almost powdery, but many whole flakes still remain. Once processed, dump the grains onto a lined baking sheet with the oat bran and wheat germ, and toast in the oven for just a few minutes. The grains should smell slightly toasted, but shouldn't be brown. If using whole dried dates, chop into small bits, separate the pieces, and coat in some of the grains to reduce stickiness. Chop pears into small pieces. Once the nuts are slightly cooled, chop them roughly. Mix grains, nuts, and fruit, and mix thoroughly. Allow to cool completely, and store in an airtight container.
