Cornersmith Toasted Muesli
Homemade muesli is surprisingly easy to make, and about half the price of buying it! Cornersmith’s Tahini Muesli has obsessive fans. This recipe comes from one of our chefs, Sabine, and was a staple on the cafe menu.
Using tahini means it’s nice and nutty, without being too sweet. It also makes the muesli cook to quite a rich dark brown, so don’t be alarmed and think it’s burning while you’re toasting it.
Use this recipe as a guide only; you can switch up the nuts, seeds, and puffed rice for other ingredients. Just keep the overall quantities the same.
Price range: €5.00 through €11.00
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 150°C and line a large baking tray with baking paper.
Step 2
Combine the honey, tahini, oil, brown sugar and 30 ml water in a small saucepan. Cook over low heat, stirring, until the sugar and honey have dissolved and everything is combined.
Step 3
Put all the remaining ingredients into a large bowl, then pour in the honey and tahini mixture. Combine thoroughly, so that all the dry ingredients are coated.
Step 4
Spread out the muesli on the prepared baking tray and bake for approximately 30-40 minutes. It’s very important to move the muesli around during the toasting process so it toasts evenly – do this at least once every 15 minutes.
Step 5
Reduce the oven temperature to 100°C and bake for another 15 minutes or until the muesli is dry and evenly toasted, again stirring the mix a few times as it cooks.
Step 6
Leave to cool completely before storing in an airtight container or jar.
