Home Made Natural Muesli
This is more of a list of ingredient than an actual recipe. Feel free to add in or subtract depending on personal preferences and availability.
There are two things that make the biggest impact on muesli shelf life. First are nuts – their high fat level means they are prone to rancidity.
The second watch out is moisture transfer from dried fruit to the oats. This means your fruit goes hard. Things with a skin like dried cranberries, sultanas or raisins tend to keep soft. As much as I love juicy prunes, they dry out in muesli.
rolled oats (steel cut or traditional)
oat bran
nuts (choose from macadamias, pistachios, hazelnuts, walnuts or almonds)
dried fruit (choose from cranberries, raisins, apricot, dates, paw paw)
linseeds*
sunflower seeds
pepitas
1. Combine your chosen ingredients adding a little bit more of this and a little bit more of that until your mixture looks good.
2. Store in an airtight container for 3-6 months.
*Note. My Dad was telling me he was talking to a linseed farmer. Apparently they are very difficult to grow and require a whole swag of chemicals. Make sure you choose organic if you do decide to go down the linseed path.
