Thirty Minute Muesli Food

TOASTED MUESLI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Spread the oats, barley flakes, rye flakes, flaxseed meal, pumpkin seeds, almonds and hazelnuts on a large rimmed baking sheet and bake, stirring once, until lightly golden brown, about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool.
• Add the dried fruit and salt to the mixture on the baking sheet and stir to combine. Transfer to a container with a lid and store in a cool, dry place. The muesli will last for at least a month if stored properly.

HOW TO MAKE MUESLI

Steps:

• Add all ingredients to a large bowl and stir to combine. Store at room temperature a large airtight container. Keeps for weeks or even months!
• To serve, scoop out 1/2 cup and add to a bowl. Add yogurt or milk of choice and fresh fruit if desired. Eat right away, or let soak for about 30 minutes to soften. Or, if you prefer, you can soak it overnight in the refrigerator.

BREAKFAST MUESLI

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Mix oats, peanuts, almonds, coconut flakes, bran, pumpkin, chia, sesame, and sunflower seeds in a large bowl.
• Place oil, honey, and sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat; heat until boiling. Pour over oat mixture and stir well to combine. Spread muesli out onto baking sheet.
• Bake muesli in the preheated oven, stirring every 10 minutes, until golden, about 40 minutes total. Remove from oven and cool, about 30 minutes. Stir in golden raisins and store in a sealed container.
