Chopped Almonds - 15 nos

Melon seeds - 1 tablespoon

Black raisins - 1 tablespoon

Blue berries & cranberries - 1 tablespoon

Vanilla essence - few drops

Method:

# Dry roast oats. ( without changing colour)

# Mix honey, oil & vanilla essence together.

# Make sure honey & oil is mixed well...add roasted oats, berries, raisins, melon seeds & almonds.

# Preheat microwave convention oven @ 160'c.

# Grease baking tin with oil and pour the mixture.

# Bake @ 160'c for 20-25 minutes.
