Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups rolled oats
- 0.5 cup sliced almonds
- 0.5 cup chopped walnuts
- 0.25 cup pumpkin seeds
- 0.25 cup sunflower seeds
- 0.5 cup dried cranberries
- 0.5 cup dried apricots, chopped
- 0.5 cup raisins
- 0.5 cup dried apple, chopped
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 0.25 cup honey
- 0.5 cup apple juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, sliced almonds, chopped walnuts, pumpkin seeds, and sunflower seeds.
In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the honey, apple juice, and vanilla extract. Stir frequently until the honey is fully dissolved and the mixture is warm, about 2-3 minutes.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and pour the mixture over the dry ingredients. Stir well to evenly coat the oats and nuts with the honey mixture.
Preheat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the oat mixture to the skillet and cook, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes, or until the mixture is golden and lightly toasted.
Transfer the toasted muesli back to the large mixing bowl and allow it to cool for a few minutes.
Once the muesli has cooled slightly, gently fold in the dried cranberries, chopped apricots, raisins, and chopped dried apple.
Sprinkle the cinnamon over the mixture and gently stir to combine all the ingredients.
Store the muesli in an airtight container at room temperature. It will keep fresh for up to 2 weeks.
Serve the homemade fruit and nut muesli with milk or yogurt and fresh fruit for a complete breakfast or enjoy it as a healthy snack.
