Ingredients:

- Egg White

Don't go crazy on buying loads of different types of nuts and dried fruits just yet. I bought a packet in track which was mixed fruits and nuts ( just over 4e) which was such good value ! It has Brazil nuts, pistachios, almond, cashews, walnuts, pecans and a colourful mixture of fruits. If you do get this one though you will have to separate the fruit and nuts from each other because they can't be cooked together !!!
Also for this recipe I do x3 oats to x1 fruit/ nuts/seeds
1.Preheat oven to 180. First roughly chop your nuts and dried fruit seperatly. Or put the nuts in a bag and bash them . I like mine very roughly done because I like tasting and being able to see them .
2. Heat up your honey as it is easier to pour . Whip egg white.
3.Put your oats, nuts, seeds, egg white and cinnamon in a bowl and then pour your honey in while stirring with a wooden spoon to cover all the oats lightly.
-Leave the fruit out. If you put the fruit in now it will burn in the oven.
4.Pour out onto a baking tray layered with grease proof paper.
5. Put into the oven and toss oats around every ten mins. Do this 3-4 times. If it still looks very pale leave in oven longer but check more regularly. ( it will
Burn otherwise)
Take out and throw dried fruit in. Leave cool on tray and store in an airtight container.
This should keep for two weeks ! Simples!! :-)
