Ingredients

• 1/2 cup almond flakes (made from whole almonds)
• 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
• 1/2 cup chopped hazelnuts
• 25g shredded organic coconut (made from 1 coconut)
• 2 cups puffed rice
• 2 cups puffed quinoa
• 2 cups toasted oats
• 1 cup rice bran
• 1/2 cup pumpkin seed kernels
• 55g roughly chopped dried organic figs
• 1/4 cup roughly chopped dried organic apricots
• 20g roughly chopped dried organic apples
• 1/4 cup organic blueberries, strawberries, raspberries

Method

1. Add almonds to a baking tray.

2. Add chopped up fresh coconut to a baking tray.

3. Cook in medium oven at 180°C for between 3-5 minutes - until they are very lightly toasted. Check on them regularly to make sure they don't burn.

4. Remove the coconut and almonds from the oven and chop roughly (or finely, depending on your preference).

5. Allow coconuts and almonds to cool.

6. Combine coconuts and almonds with rest of ingredients in a large bowl and mix through well.

7. Add the muesli to an airtight container.

This makes a great muesli which can be eaten with fresh berries and a banana chopped on top, for added flavour and served with your preference of milk - cow's, rice, soy, almond, whichever one you prefer.
