This simple, delicious Toasted Muesli Fruit Breakfast Bowl takes a mere 5 minutes to prepare so you can enjoy a wholesome, healthy breakfast everyday!
TOASTED MUESLI FRUIT BREAKFAST BOWL
Oats aren’t usually my first choice when it comes to breakfast food. Hot porridge just doesn’t taste right in the summer months (however, overnight oats do and I occasionally enjoy a bowl of refreshing oaty breakfast). As for shop-bought granola I usually find it too sweet.
Muesli, which I sometimes have, is essentially raw oats often mixed with dried fruit and nuts. In this Toasted Muesli Fruit Breakfast Bowl recipe I have used the idea of combining raw oats with fruit, something that shop bought muesli often contains, with a few adjustments. First of all, I am using fresh seasonal fruit rather than dried fruit, and also the oats are quickly toasted to release more flavour.
The oats are toasted along with some seeds (I used chia and flaxseed but you can use your own favourite seed combination) as well as cinnamon, which will add even more flavour and goodness to your breakfast.
Not to mention the aroma that will fill your kitchen!
And since the whole toasting operation takes only a couple of minutes you can have freshly made, nutritious, fragrant muesli every day. Just add the fruit, a dollop of yogurt (or milk if you prefer), drizzle with maple syrup, honey or agave syrup and enjoy!
