Muesli is a funny thing. Making it is a bit like playing Chinese whispers: you pass on a recipe but everyone has their own iteration of it and somehow the end product is always quite different from how it originally started. I actually like this evolution and I’m always interested to try someone’s batch when they tell me they made ‘my’ muesli.
I struggled with what to call this recipe because in fact, my muesli is an evolution of my Mum’s muesli that she made as we were growing up. Her recipe was quite legendary and also well travelled. During my years of living in the States, London and Hong Kong my Mum (or any of her friends she could rope in) always arrived with a batch of her homemade muesli – it was a little piece of home I always savoured.
My version of my Mum’s muesli is perhaps a bit more 2014 (in terms of ingredients and price) but the basic recipe remains the same – i.e. coconut oil replaces olive oil, pure maple syrup or agave replaces honey (although honey works perfectly well) and goji replace raisins, etc, etc. I will leave it up to you to choose what you opt-in and out of for this recipe.
