How to Make Muesli
Note: The full instructions are provided in the recipe card below.
Combine the old-fashioned oats, ground flax seeds, unsweetened coconut flakes, cinnamon, and dried fruit in a large mixing bowl. Add the chopped pecans, walnuts, and any seeds you use (like sunflower or pumpkin seeds).
Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly distributed. Store your homemade muesli in an airtight container. It will stay fresh for several weeks in a cool, dry place.
When you're ready to enjoy your muesli, scoop the desired amount into a bowl. Add cold milk or yogurt, and let the mixture sit for a few minutes; this allows the oats and dried fruit to soften, creating a more enjoyable texture.
