Notes
- As noted above, a traditional muesli is raw -- so you do not need to toast or roast the oats and other ingredients. That said, when you're preparing your own muesli recipe at home, you can feel free to roast the oats if that's your preference. To roast oats for muesli, spread the raw oats on a large rimmed baking sheet. Bake in a 350°F oven for about 12 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow the oats to cool before combining with the rest of the ingredients.
- This recipe yields a total of 4 ½ cups of muesli. Nutrition facts are for a serving size of ¼ cup.
