I woke up this morning and headed into the kitchen with the intention of making tea, and instead found myself making homemade muesli.
(The tea happened a bit later)
I recently fell into a breakfast rut, tired of some of my favorites. I used to keep a bag of Bob’s Red Mill muesli in my pantry, but I took it out of the rotation when I tired of it.
I’m glad I did because it led me to realize how simple it is to make my own (and much more cost effective).
Muesli is flexible – you can add what you like or your body is craving, and you can eat it cold (either with milk or yogurt) or warm.
It also makes the perfect on-the-go mason jar meal.
Xandra’s 5 Minute Breakfast Muesli:
2 cups rolled oats
1/4 cup wheat germ
1 tsp (or to taste) cinnamon
1/3 cup pumpkin seeds
1/3 cup sunflower seeds
1/3 cup sliced almonds
2 tbs coconut flakes
2 tbs chia seeds
1 cup unsweetened raisins
Combine ingredients in a bowl, and serve over yogurt, in milk, or warmed on the stovetop with milk.
Store remaining muesli in a glass storage container.

YUMMY recipe. I believe I have all these ingredients in my pantry.
That’s the best part Noelle! I’m loving creating new recipes with the odds and ends I’ve got in the pantry.
This looks so yummy! I would love to have it for breakfast but would have to make it the night before if I actually was going to be able to eat it
looks yummy. I always have dreams of making my own cereal this looks simple enough to try and healthy thanks for sharing.
Great recipe and I love that it includes chia seeds!
