DIY Muesli Recipe

• 1 1/2 c. rolled oats
• 1 c. rolled barley (I didn't have this, I used more oats)
• 1/3 c. oat bran
• 1/3 c. wheat germ
• 1/4 c. almonds
• 1/4 c. hazelnuts
• 1/4 c. pepitas (pumpkin seeds)
• 1/4 c. raisins
• 1/4 c. chopped dates
• 1/4 c. chopped dried pears

1. Toast nuts and pepitas in the oven (at 325F or so) until lightly browned and toasty-smelling, about 6-10 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, process the oats and barley: place in the bowl of a food processor and pulse several times until some of the grains are almost powdery, but many whole flakes still remain.
3. Once processed, dump the grains onto a lined baking sheet with the oat bran and wheat germ, and toast in the oven for just a few minutes.
4. The grains should smell slightly toasted, but shouldn't be brown.
5. If using whole dried dates, chop into small bits, separate the pieces, and coat in some of the grains to reduce stickiness.
6. Chop pears into small pieces.
7. Once the nuts are slightly cooled, chop them roughly.
8. Mix grains, nuts, and fruit, and mix thoroughly.
9. Allow to cool completely, and store in an airtight container.
