Cindy made this as a Christmas present many years ago and I have made it many times since then. Marie Isbell

Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Heat oats on an uncreased cookie sheet for 10 minutes. Put warm oats in a large bowl. Add the next four dry ingredients and mix well.
Combine the wet ingredients and mix well. Add to the dry ingredients and mix well.
Spread evenly over a large, ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, stirring often to brown evenly.
