Rina’s take on Aunty Helen’s Muesli
August 15th, 2009 at 8:39 pm (Recipes)
Another Auntie Helen muesli recipe changed to taste. The exact amount of the ingredients is not really important. See Pam’s version – you may like that better!
INGREDIENTS:
2 cups Rolled Oats
1 cup Whole Oats
½ cup Oat Bran
½ cup Wheatgerm
2 tbsp Brown Sugar
2 tbsp Honey
½ cup Coconut
1 tsp Cinnamon
1 tsp Mixed Spice
½ cup warm Water
½ cup Olive Oil (or Grape Seed)
¼ tsp Salt (pinch)
Add the following, whatever you like, and amounts you like:
Seeds: Pumpkin and Sunflower Seeds. And/or add a bit of L.S.A (Crushed Linseed, Sunflower Seed and Almond)
Nuts: Hazelnuts, Walnuts, Almonds, Pecans, Cashews etc
Fruits: Sultanas, Apricots, Cranberries, Dates, etc. I do not put this in as I rather add fresh fruit when I eat it. Best to add dried fruit only half way else it gets to hard..
METHOD: Mix water, oil, sugar and honey. Put rest of stuff into a large roasting pan, add liquid and combine. Bake at 160 degrees for about 30-40 minutes, until golden brown. Stir every 15 minutes or so. Stir as mixture cools, store in an airtight container when cold.

Great to see your spin on this muesli on here Rina. Looking after yourself with all that fresh fruit :0) I might try that myself.
