  • 1 cup raw honey
  • ½ cup natural peanut or almond butter

  • In a large bowl combine oats, flour, ground almonds, wheat germ, almonds, plums, raisons and salt. Stir well.
  • In a small saucepan add honey, peanut butter and olive oil. Warm over a medium to low heat until well blended. Don’t let it boil. Add vanilla.
