Serves: 4 servings

Ingredients

  1. 1 cup rolled oats
  2. 1/2 cup chopped dates
  3. 1/2 cup shredded coconut
  4. 1/4 cup honey
  5. 1/4 cup almond slivers
  6. 1 cup yogurt
  7. 1 cup milk
  8. 1/2 cup fresh fruits (e.g., berries, bananas)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine rolled oats, chopped dates, shredded coconut, and almond slivers.
  3. Drizzle honey over the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly to ensure even coating.
  4. Spread the mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet, creating a thin, uniform layer.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure even golden browning and prevent burning.
  6. Remove from oven and let the granola cool completely to achieve a crispy texture.
  7. In serving bowls, layer yogurt as the base, then add the cooled granola mixture.
  8. Top with fresh fruits like sliced bananas, mixed berries, or seasonal fruits of choice.
  9. Pour cold milk over the muesli just before serving to maintain crunchiness.
  10. Serve immediately and enjoy the rich, textural combination of creamy yogurt, crunchy granola, and fresh fruits.

Tips

  1. Toast your oats and nuts carefully to enhance their natural flavors - watch them closely to prevent burning.
  2. Use high-quality honey for a richer, more complex sweetness in your granola.
  3. For extra crunch, let the granola cool completely before storing or serving.
  4. Experiment with different seasonal fruits to keep the recipe exciting and fresh.
  5. Make a larger batch of granola and store in an airtight container for quick breakfasts throughout the week.
  6. Choose full-fat yogurt for a creamier, more luxurious texture.
  7. For a dairy-free version, substitute yogurt and milk with plant-based alternatives.
  8. Add a sprinkle of cinnamon or vanilla extract to the granola mix for extra warmth and depth of flavor.
