Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Rolled oats
- 0.5 cup Almonds (chopped)
- 0.5 cup Dried cranberries
- 0.5 cup Dried apricots (chopped)
- 0.25 cup Shredded coconut (unsweetened)
- 2 tablespoons Chia seeds
- 0.25 cup Sunflower seeds
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 2 cups Milk (or your preferred plant-based milk)
- 1 cup Fresh fruit (e.g., sliced banana or berries, optional, for serving)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, chopped almonds, dried cranberries, dried apricots, shredded coconut, chia seeds, sunflower seeds, and ground cinnamon. Mix well to ensure an even distribution of ingredients.
Drizzle the honey over the dry ingredients and gently toss to lightly coat the mixture. If the honey is stiff, warm it slightly to make it easier to drizzle.
Portion out the muesli into individual bowls (about 1/2 cup per serving), or store it in an airtight container for later use.
When ready to serve, pour 1/2 cup of milk over each muesli serving. Let it sit for 5–10 minutes, allowing the oats to soften.
Top with fresh fruit if desired, and enjoy a balanced, naturally sweet breakfast!
