1. I have substituted in bran, wheat germ, ground flax and whole wheat flour.
2. I used chopped dates instead of apricots.
3. My husband's allergy has led me to use coconut, cashews or peanuts instead of almonds.
4. Currants or cranberries can be used instead of raisins.
5. Just as long as the recipe equals out mathematically, I have never had this recipe flop on me.
6. Mix dry ingredients together.
7. Mix wet ingredients together.
8. Stir into oat mixture until evenly combined.
9. Press firmly into 9" square pan.
10. Bake at 350 deg for 20 minutes (or until browned).
