Crunchy Muesli

Once upon a time, there was a little boy named Leopold, three years old, and his favourite meal was risotto (which is remarkable for a three year old, don't you think so?). His mother made a lot of effort to feed him well, and used to make porridge for him every morning. One day he stopped eating what his mother lovingly prepared for him, and instead he poured some milk into a bowl, threw his oats in and munched away on them. Leopold, listen: If you want to try something different for your breakfast, you may be interested in my DIY chrunchy muesli, which was inspired by this recipe and it goes like this:

1. Preheat oven to 150°

2.
In a bowl, mix
300 g oats (small ones) with
100 g shredded coconut.

3. In a small pan, mix
100 ml honey with
3 table spoons of vegetable oil
over slow heat until the mixture is really fluid.

4. Combine the oats/coconut with the honey/oil mixture in the bowl and give it a good stir.

5. Spread everything on a baking tray and put in the oven for, in total, 30 minutes or until golden. After 15 minutes, open the oven (taking in a heavenly scent of honey) and give the mixture another stir to make sure that all oats are toasted really well.

6.Let cool completely on the tray and add
200g nuts (chopped into pieces, although the photo shows whole nuts) and, if mummy agrees,
100g small chunks of chocolate

And then do the usual thing: throw some of this in a bowl, add some milk, cold or warm, and
enjoy your breakfast! And: Happy Namenstag Leopold!
