museli - it's poppin'



this is my museli. I've been working on the combination for a few weeks and it just gets better and better.

2 x handfuls almonds
2 x handfuls hazelnuts
1 cup mixed hulled sunflower, pumpkin & sesame seeds
1/3 cup flaked dried coconut
pinch of salt
1/3 cup honey
1/3 cup cooking oil
3 x cups mixed rolled oats, rye, barley, triticale

put nuts into a food processor in small batches and process briefly to break them up a bit. Combine with seeds, coconut & salt in a large bowl, add honey and oil, stir to combine well. Gradually add rolled oats etc and stir well to coat everything in the oil and honey mixture.

Spread the mixture to a depth of about 2 cm on trays lined with baking paper and place in a preheated 140 - 160 C oven. Cook for about 20 minutes until very lightly browned, stirring every ten minutes or so. When you take it out of the oven it will be soft and sticky, but as it cools it becomes crispily good.

Mixed in chopped dried apricots, or nectarines or apples to taste, if you like.

that's about enough for about 2 weeks of breakfasts

That sounds like the best muesli ever, ever, ever.
I had muesli for breakfast this morning for the first time in ages, it came with fresh raspberries, half a passionfruit, mango, banana and strawberry slices. So good.
