by www.finedinings.com

Makes 3 dozen

2 tablespoons almonds, sliced, toasted
2 tablespoons sunflower seeds, toasted
1-3/4 cups quick cooking rolled oats, divided
1 cup mixed dried fruit
2 tablespoons raisins
2 tablespoons unsweetened coconut flakes
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cups creamy style peanut butter
1/4 cup honey
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Place almonds at one end of a cookie sheet; place sunflower seeds at the other end keeping them separated; broil 2 minutes; set seeds aside. Process almonds with 1/4 cup rolled oats in processor to fine crumbs; place in a small bowl. This can all be done in advance.

In a large bowl combine and mix well the sunflower seeds, the remaining 1-1/2 cups rolled oats, dried fruit, raisins, coconut flakes, cinnamon, peanut butter, honey and vanilla. Moisten your hands with water and form the granola mixture into 1-inch balls; roll in the almond-rolled oats fine crumbs mixture and serve on a platter for breakfast with fresh fruit.
