Instructions and recipes for making muesli yourself. Easy as pie homemade muesli. With many delicious recipes for your personal muesli.

Breakfast should be the most important meal of the day. Especially for children, breakfast is the basis before an often long school day. Children should come to school fit and healthy. A healthy breakfast in the morning, with carbohydrates, vitamins, and nutrients that ensure a healthy start to the day, is all the more important. What could be more obvious than freshly preparing tasty muesli yourself?

The basic ingredients for a healthy muesli

Cereals, millet, quinoa, spelled, oats, or millet are the basis for every muesli. They are good suppliers of energy because they contain a lot of important roughage and thus ensure a long-lasting feeling of satiety. Their vitamin B content, as well as minerals, ensure a good immune system.

Nuts

Since nuts are very rich in healthy fats, minerals, and proteins, they are essential for nourishing our nerves. They should not be missing in any homemade muesli. It doesn’t matter whether walnuts, hazelnuts, cashews, or other types of nuts are used. You can freely choose from the range of nuts according to your mood.

Seeds and kernels

Seeds and kernels of all kinds provide important omega-3 fatty acids and thus protect the body from stress. Sunflower seeds, sesame, hemp seeds, chia seeds, and other seeds are suitable for the fresh muesli.

Spices

Spices give the muesli a special touch. Cinnamon and vanilla have an extremely mood-enhancing effect. Since they are able to regulate the blood sugar level, they are particularly valuable and healthy and therefore the perfect addition to our fresh, homemade muesli.

Dairy products

Dairy products such as yogurt, kefir, quark, milk, or cream cheese are excellent sources of protein and are essential for healthy intestinal flora. Use dairy products without sugar or added sugar to mix your muesli healthily. Avoid ready-made, store-bought muesli mixes, as sugar is often added to them.
If you suffer from lactose intolerance, replace the dairy products with plant-based products such as oat milk, soy milk, almond milk, rice milk, or similar.

Fruit

Fresh seasonal fruit, such as strawberries, blueberries, apricots, mangoes, apples, pears…etc. gives your muesli freshness and also provides you with important vitamins. Pay attention to good quality and use unsprayed fruit if possible, or fruit of organic quality for your homemade muesli.

Sweeten the muesli

To avoid refined sugar, choose natural variants such as honey, maple syrup, or coconut blossom sugar. Unlike refined sugar, these contain carbohydrates, minerals, and other nutrients.
