Hot Muesli for Cold Mornings

This morning I woke up and I could feel the cold air on the other side of my cozy blankets. I forced myself out of bed, turned on some Bright Eyes, and headed for the kitchen. When I was growing up one of my favorite breakfasts was homemade muesli. It's a cold Swedish cereal made from raw oats, grated apple, yogurt, and nuts. For a winter version I put my oats on the stove and left out the yogurt.
This is a quick Delicious recipe to add a little homemade sunshine to your morning. Not to mention it's packed with fiber, protein, and essential fatty acids :)

Xoxo, Liesse


Hot Muesli

  • 1/2 Cup Oats (I like steel cut but you can also use large flat oats)
  • 1 1/2 Tsp Cinnamon
  • Dash Vanilla
  • 1 Apple, grated
  • Handful Raw Pumpkin Seeds
  1. Cook your oats as directed on package
  2. Just before they have reached desired consistency add cinnamon and vanilla
  3. Mix in pumpkin seeds and cook for additional minute
  4. Mix grated apple and oats in bowl
  5. Enjoy!
