Breakfast: Pecan Homemade Muesli
Ingredients:
- 1 cup dried tart cherries, roughly chopped
- 4 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup unsweetened large coconut flakes
- 1 1/2 cup pecan pieces
- 2 tablespoon pure maple syrup
- 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon nutmeg
- Non-dairy milk
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 175°C.
- Spread the oats evenly on a baking sheet, then place the coconut and pecan pieces (different tray) in another baking sheet layer on the top.
- Place both trays in the oven for about 10 minutes. Remove the trays from the oven and allow to cool slightly.
- Mix the maple syrup and vanilla in a small bowl, then put it in the microwave to heat the bowl for 20 seconds
- Mix the toasted oats, coconut, and pecans with the cherries, spices, and maple mixture until combine. Pour the mixture back onto the baking sheet and spread it into an even layer to allow to fully dry, about 10 minutes. Stir to break up any clumps, then transfer to a sealable container.
- To serve, pour over milk and drizzle with a touch of maple syrup. (For one serving, we used 3/4 cup cereal, 1/2 cup milk, and 2 teaspoons maple syrup.) Adding the maple syrup when serving adds the final bit of sweetness, so adjust as desired. Store in a sealed container or bag in the freezer; it thaws immediately so no need to defrost.
