Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Grease an 8x8 glass pan.
- Place nuts and oats on a baking sheet, and bake for about 12 minutes or until lightly toasted.
- While oats and nuts are toasting, place in a saucepan over medium heat the honey, brown sugar, butter, vanilla, cinnamon and salt.
- Stir until the mixture bubbles, and keep it boiling and stirring for about 2 minutes.
- When oats and nuts come out of the oven, turn it down to 325.
- Take the pan off the heat, and when the oats are finished, pour them right into the saucepan and mix to combine honey mixture evenly.
- Stir in the chopped dried fruit.
- Press mixture into the glass pan with the back of a spoon - it will be pretty sticky.
- Bake at 325 for 20 minutes, and let cool completely before cutting.
- Wrapped in saran wrap, these will keep for at least a couple of weeks!

FRUIT AND NUT GRANOLA (CHRISSIE'S GRANOLA)
Originally given to me at work as a 'Hey! I made this, try it, it's vegan (I'm not vegan), you'll love it!' and I did; I really did love it. I've made it several times now and a modified version for my husband (omitted the chocolate and used deluxe mixed nuts). I have to stash some or get none in my house.

ROSE'S LIGHT NUT AND DRIED FRUIT GRANOLA
From Rose Reisman. "If you prefer to have dried fruit that is baked, add it to the granola mixture before it goes into the oven. It makes the fruit much chewier. If you want the granola crisper, leave it in the oven with the heat off for another two hours. Feel free to substitute any dried fruit of your choice."

FRUIT AND NUT GRANOLA
My only mistake in making this recipe was introducing it to my husband. For the last year it has become his favorite way to start out the day. When I get close to running out, it is brought to my attention quickly. I use my own dried strawberries and other fruits that do not have added sugar. If you don't want too much, you can...
