Loved this recipe! I toasted mine in the oven at 250 degrees for about 20 minutes. Also added 1/4 cup ground flax seed and used 1/8 cup Splenda brown sugar in place of regular brown sugar. Great with soy milk!

I omitted the brown sugar as one of the reviews suggested, but it didn't turn out sweet enough. So before eating, I've been mixing each individual serving with a teaspoon of honey. The mixture isn't really as filling as I had anticipated it would be, but it does make a tasty breakfast when served with low-fat plain yogurt and fresh sliced banana on top.

This recipe was exactly what I was looking for. It is a perfect way to start the morning. I usually eat it with milk but it is great if you let it set in yogurt for a while to absorb some of the moisture. I made a few changes : 1. I added only 1/8 cup brown sugar (the raisins made it sweet enough too) 2. I omitted the sunflower seeds and added slivered almonds. 3. I added dried cherries as well. This is a perfect base that you can add too! Thanks for the recipe!

Never had Muesli before and I"m so glad that I tried this recipe! I added 1/2 cup dried cranberries, 1/2 cup almonds, 1/2 cup pecans, 1/2 cup dates, decreased the walnuts to 1/4 cup, and omitted the brown sugar. So good. I'm hoping this will replace my daughter's(4 years old) cereal so I'll have to see how she reacts to it.

I lived in Europe and love eating muesli there. This is very authentic. I changed the wheat bran to ground flax seed. Terrific!

This is very good, I use craisins and add chopped dates. I love that you can add any addtional dried fruits or nuts that you like. I also add additional sunflower seeds. I've been putting it on top of Trader Joe's greek style yogurt - AWESOME!

I make Muesli a few times a week for my family of 5. Here is how I got my husband to TRY oatmeal and LOVE it with almost no time or effort! I simplify this to equal parts rolled oats and fat free milk with a little cinnamon and sugar (if desired) with raisins and blueberries. To make things even easier - I use those ingredients and mix them before bed, cover with wrap and put it in the fridge. The oats get a deliciously chewy texture and everything is super cold since it chilled overnight. (I even heat it for my little ones when they wake up chilly) For blueberries, I use the blueberries we picked and froze because they thaw perfectly by morning. All but the milk and berries can even be premixed in bulk and kept on hand to make it even EASIER! Don't forget - put in whatever you want for mix-ins! Nuts are great!

I have been making this recipe for about one year now. We have a local co-op where I can buy all the ingredients for way less than a box of cereal. My only adjustment to the recipe is that I use craisins instead of raisins. I made a batch for my brother, and he loved it. My favorite way to eat it is with vanilla Activa yogurt, and frozen blueberries. It is very filling, healthy, and good for you!

I used Splenda Brown Sugar Blend and only 1/2 the amount called for in the recipe (as is the case with Splenda blends) and we LOVE this!! My children and I eat this whole batch within two days of making it so we've gone to at least doubling or tripling it. We eat 1 cup at a time with soy milk. My son and I microwave it for 1:30 and my daughter eats it cold. THANK you for this wonderful, healthy, satisfying, hearty Muesli!

This is a great recipe! It is so simple & very delicious. I didn't have oat or wheat bran on hand, so I substituted ground flaxseed & grape-nuts type cereal instead. Can't wait for my kids to try it!

This has become a breakfast, and sometimes snack, tradition. So delicious and nutritious. The only thing I noticed is that the whole quantity of wheat bran can made it a little to saw dusty.

thank you so much! i have just been traveling in europe for the past month and fell in love with muesli. after seeing boxes at the store for $7.99 (!?!?) i checked here to see if there was a good recipe. it's perfect - just like what i had in europe! i've been topping it with fresh fruit and mixing it with bran flakes, or i add in extra dried fruit as well (apples, figs...). i also added flaxseed and substituted almonds. no need for sugar (honestly, this is coming from a huge sweet tooth) this recipe is awesome, thank you!

My husband and I are totally addicted to this muesli. We discovered it last week and have been eating it daily since then. I had to go back to the store to get more ingredients and have been sending my friends home with little bags of it. I added some flax seeds and slivered almonds, as well as dried blueberries and cherries. YUM!! I have so far had it cold with milk, with vanilla yogurt, and hot with milk. With yogurt is so far my favorite, but I like the diversity of it, so I won't get sick of it. We both noticed that we were full much longer and had more energy than usual after having this for breakfast. I will never go back!

I really liked this recipe and that surprised me because it was so simple. I used craisins instead of raisins and omitted the sunflower seeds because I didn't have any. I have found that I like this dry, with milk, warm, or as a topping for yogurt. Thanks for the recipe!

I was not expecting this to be good as it looked so simple...I figured it would be bland. It is anything but, I added extra dried blueberries and pecans and it was amazing with just some milk. It was so good I had to have seconds. If you want to shake it up, you can add apple or pumpkin spice!

Healthy, hearty, delicious, and high in fiber. I recommend it with yogurt or kefir. I like to add chopped dried apricots. I use currants instead of raisins.

I love this for breakfast! I eat 1/2 c of Muesli mixed with 1/2 c fat-free plain yogurt and 1/4 c unsweetened applesauce and dash of cinnamon - you don't even need the brown sugar for sweetness that way. I also substituted flax seed for the oat bran. I tried mixing this the night before but it gets much too thick, so I just blend the Muesli w/ the yogurt, etc right before eating.

I had muesli in Austria and *loved* it. I make this recipe with honey instead of sugar, sliced almonds instead of the other nuts, and golden raisins and mix it with a little less than an equal part yogurt before I go to bed, then mix in milk or soy milk (and honey) in the morning. Sometimes fresh fruit but I actually like it better without! This is so healthy; I don't like oatmeal and am so happy to have a good breakfast alternative to sugary, processed cereals or fatty egg dishes.
