A Quick and Hearty Breakfast
prep time: 15 minutes
soaking time: overnight
INGREDIENTS
4 cups rolled grain flakes (any combination of oat, rye or spelt)
½ cup almonds, chopped
¼ cup sunflower seeds
¼ cup pumpkin seeds
¼ cup dried currants, optional
¼ cup dried pear, optional
¼ cup dried peaches, optional
1 teaspoon cinnamon
½ teaspoon cardamom
DIRECTIONS
In a large bowl, combine all ingredients. Transfer to an airtight container and store for up to 2 weeks in the refrigerator.
To serve, transfer desired amount (approximately ¾ cup) of muesli into an individual serving bowl. Soak muesli overnight in just enough water to cover the muesli. In the morning add yogurt or nut milk, and flax oil.
For a variation, omit dried fruit in preparing the muesli, instead top with fruit compote or fresh fruit after muesli has been soaked.
