I make this every year; Bob loves it!



Ingredients:

6 pieces matzah (could be part whole wheat)
2 cups coconut, shredded
1 cup sunflower seeds
1/2 cup shelled pumpkin seeds, optional
1/2 cup cashew nuts, optional
1/3 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup honey
2 tablespoons oils
1 cup water
1/2 cup slivered almonds
dried fruit , raisins, dates, prunes, figs, apples, etc

Directions:

Break up the matzoh sheets into pieces roughly an inch by an inch.

In a large bowl, combine matzah pieces with the rest of the dry ingredients, except the almonds & fruit. Mix well. In a small bowl, combine the honey & oil. Add this mixture to the dry ingredients. Drizzle the water over all, a little at a time, mixing it through. Preheat oven to 225°. Spread this mixture onto 2 cookie sheets lined with parchment paper or lightly greased with oil. Bake for 2 hours, stirring every 15 minutes. Add the almonds & bake for another 15 minutes or until mixture is dry & toasty brown in color. Turn off oven & let mixture cool in the oven. You can add the fruit at this point or at serving time. Store in highly-covered containers in the refrigerator or freezer. Good with either cold or hot milk or with yogurt.


Makes 2 quarts.

4/1/2007: I think it might need to be turned up to 250° for last 1/2 hour or so.
