The first one is dairy-free and from Betty Crocker.com, and can be found here.
It takes just 15 minutes of prep, and takes a while to bake (an hour +). But it makes 28 servings!

Spread on 2 ungreased large cookie sheets with sides. Place both cookie sheets in oven on 2 separate oven racks, one below the other.
Bake 20 minutes, stirring after 10 minutes. Reverse position of cookie sheets in oven; bake 10 to 20 minutes longer, stirring every 10 minutes, until golden brown. Cool completely on cookie sheets, about 30 minutes.
Stir mixture to break apart. Stir in dried fruit. Store in tightly covered container.
The other recipe is one that I've made for a long time, before I had a child that could not tolerate dairy. I think it is from the "More With Less" cookbook.
