    SWISS MUESLI

    January 12, 2015

     

     

    I think learning how to make Swiss muesli and LOVING it was part of the deal with my husband. Known actually as bircher muesli, this delicious typical Swiss breakfast is so easy to make. You can buy the meusli all mixed together, or you can make it yourself. It takes just a few minutes to make and you can let it sit overnight or eat it right away. I made this for my husband's breakfast early this morning and made some stewed fruits to go along with it. You can use uncooked fruit, and any kind you like! I love to eat it with bananas, but as he is not such a fan of bananas, I used berries and an apple. Also, to make this totally gluten free, I used quinoa and buckwheat flakes, which results in a high protein, high fiber breakfast. Power breakfast it is!

    Husband approved.

     

    Serves 2

     

    Ingedients:

    1/2 cup quinoa flakes

    1/2 cup buckwheat flakes 

    2 dates

    1 tbsp coconut oil

    1 apple

    2/3 cup mixed berries

    1 tsp cinnamon 

    10 hazelnuts

    1 1/2 cups almond milk

    1 tsp sunflower seeds

    1 tsp pumpkin seeds

    Optional: 1/3 cup yogurt

     

    Directions:

    Chop the dates, berries and apple. In a medium sized pan, add the coconut oil and turn heat on high. Once melted, add the ingredients above plus the hazelnuts, sunflower and pumpkin seeds. Stew for about 5-10 minutes until the fruits are cooked. In a serving bowl, mix the quinoa flakes, buckwheat flakes, and almond milk. Mix in the yogurt if desired, and add the sauteed fruit mixture. Top with cinnamon. Place in the fridge and leave overnight or eat right away.
