kcalIngredients
1 1/3 cup boiling water
1/2 cup whole millet
2 cups gluten-free rolled oats
3/4 cup shelled pistachios
1/2 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
1/2 cup honey
1 tablespoon coconut oil
1 teaspoon fine-grain sea salt
2/3 cup dried cranberries
Directions
- Cook the Millet: Pour the boiling water over the millet in a heatproof bowl. Cover and let it sit for about 10 minutes, then drain and spread it out on a baking sheet to dry.
- Prepare the Dry Ingredients: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large bowl, mix the gluten-free rolled oats, pistachios, and coconut flakes.
- Make the Honey-Coconut Mixture: In a small saucepan over low heat, warm the honey, coconut oil, and sea salt, stirring until well combined. Pour this mixture over the oat and pistachio mix, stirring to coat everything evenly.
- Toast the Muesli:
- Spread the oat mixture evenly onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Add the cooked millet on top. Bake for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until everything is golden brown and toasted.
- Add Cranberries:
- Remove the toasted muesli from the oven and stir in the dried cranberries. Let the muesli cool completely before transferring it to an airtight container.
- Serve: Enjoy this toasted muesli with your favorite milk or yogurt for a hearty breakfast or a satisfying snack.
