Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Rolled oats
- 1 cup Chopped nuts (e.g., almonds, walnuts, or hazelnuts)
- 0.5 cup Sunflower seeds
- 0.5 cup Shredded unsweetened coconut
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 3 tablespoons Honey or maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil or olive oil, melted
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Chopped dried fruits (e.g., raisins, apricots, or cranberries)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, chopped nuts, sunflower seeds, shredded coconut, and ground cinnamon.
In a small bowl, whisk together the honey (or maple syrup), melted coconut oil (or olive oil), and vanilla extract. Pour this mixture over the dry ingredients, stirring well to ensure everything is evenly coated.
Spread the mixture out evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the mixture is golden brown and fragrant.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the mixture cool completely. The muesli will crisp up as it cools.
Once cooled, stir in the chopped dried fruits.
Store the toasted Swiss muesli in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
Serve with milk, yogurt, or as a topping for smoothie bowls.
