Victory!
Miraval Bircher Mueslix
Serves 8
2 cups housemade granola (recipe below)
3/4 cup peeled and chopped apples
3/4 cup peeled and chopped pears
1 cup nonfat plain yogurt
1/4 cup skim or soymilk
1/4 cup raisins
1 T honey
In a bowl, mix all ingredients except milk. Add milk for desired consistency. Serve cold.
**I’m adding here that you should soak this overnight so the granola can soak up all the liquid!
Housemade granola
Makes 11 cups
6 cups rolled oats
3 cups oat bran
1/4 cup pumpkin seeds
1/4 cup sunflower seeds
1 cup honey
1 vanilla bean, split in half with seeds scraped out
3 cups unsweetened apple juice
1/3 cup golden raisins
1/3 cup dried cherries
1/3 cup dried blueberries
1/3 cup chopped dried dates
Preheat the oven to 400. Spread out the rolled oats and oat bran evenly on two baking sheets. Toast for 5-8 minutes, or until golden.
On another baking sheet, spread out the pumpkin and sunflower seeds and toast for five minutes, or until lightly browned.
In a small saucepot, simmer the honey and vanilla seeds over low heat for five to seven minutes. In another pot, combine the apple juice and dried fruits. Simmer for about five minutes or until soft. Drain.
In a large bowl, combine the oat mixture, seeds and dried fruit. Stir in the warm honey and stir to coat the oat mixture as evenly as possible.
Spread the oat mixture evenly onto two baking sheets and bake for ten to fifteen minutes, or until golden brown, stirring every two minutes to prevent burning.
Cool granola completely and then store in an airtight container for up to one month.
I don’t know about y’all, but I’m rushing to the grocery store right now to get the ingredients to make this. Thank goodness!

July 26, 2010 at 1:11 pmHomemade granola is about the best thing in the world so awesome that they gave you the recipe – and I’m agreeing that it’s all about the overnight soaking to get that muesli-ness (definitely a word) going on.

I know you have worked hard to get where you are, but that doesn’t mean I can’t still drool with jealousy over your trip right? 😉

Sharing this from HuffPo & Tony Robbins. (Ironically, I met Tony Robbins when did his Firewalk–barefoot over 2,000 degree coals & lived next to Arianna Huffington (publisher of Huffpo) when lived in Montecito). They have teamed up on a program to help people who are going through crisis to turn things around in 30-days & also to create a core group to help transform the current zeitgeist of the country.
Worth watching thru IMHO:

July 26, 2010 at 4:12 pmThis will be your father’s breakfast as soon as I get the ingredients. Thanks!!
Annie@stronghealthyfit
July 26, 2010 at 4:24 pmI put together a batch of muesli today, but it wasn’t as fancy as yours! I just use raw oats instead of granola. I LOVE muesli!
Kelly @ Healthy Living With Kelly
July 26, 2010 at 4:38 pmI like how it says store for up to one month…um…yeah…this recipe might last all of about 1 day in my house!
Faith @ LovelyAsCharged
July 26, 2010 at 4:44 pmI’ve been all about the granola lately – this looks fantastic!

July 26, 2010 at 5:28 pmI don’t even have words for how amazing this looks. No words.
Nora@LifeLifeEatRight
July 26, 2010 at 5:31 pmI have been to the grocery store 7 times in the last 7 days. Is it bad that I want to make it 8 in 7 after seeing this post. I made your Chana Masala tonight…I feel like I owe you my first born. That might sound drastic, however; it was THAT good. Thank you!!
Dee
July 26, 2010 at 5:41 pmthank you thank you thank you! evernoting this right now! 😉
in ten days
July 26, 2010 at 5:45 pmi used to make granola all the time! it’s the best breakfast out there, imo. i need to get back to making some.
Rachael
July 26, 2010 at 6:08 pmMaking this! Even the word mueslix makes me smile!
Diana @ frontyardfoodie
July 26, 2010 at 6:37 pmYes! That looks like a hardcore granola recipe and I want to get me some!
marie @ marie would
July 26, 2010 at 9:39 pmoh this looks so good. i can’t wait to whip up a batch, it seems like it can be a filling and (sorta?) inexpensive breakfast that will last a while. right? sorta cheap?
jenna
July 26, 2010 at 9:52 pmhah! Couldn’t BELIEVE that dried blueberries cost me $9.99 today! But I guess considering how much final product you get, it’s “sorta cheap” and you could easily sub out the dried blueberries/cherries for a more affordable dried fruit..like more raisins. Bleh
Katharine (MealMuse)
July 26, 2010 at 9:51 pmYummy. Homemade granola is seriously the bomb diggety. I just made a ginormous batch using a Molly Wizenberg recipe from Bon Appetit mag. Made it over two weeks ago and there’s still at least 5 more breakfast’s-worth. You should try unsweetened coconut in your next batch – it’s subtle but sweet addition 🙂
Carolyn
July 27, 2010 at 4:57 amThis looks amazing!! Question, though – how much would it alter the recipe if I left out the dried fruits? The rest of my family will just pick them out, so I’d rather save them for me to add on later…
Brittany
July 27, 2010 at 6:04 amThis granola sounds amazing. I want to get the stuff to make it tonight!
Hope you are doing well Jenna!
Jil @ Peace, Love & Munchies
July 27, 2010 at 9:26 amThe granola sounds amazing – and the first picture…the fruit is just beautiful!
K
July 27, 2010 at 10:54 amUm, that sounds amazing! I’m loving the fact that the granola is so healthy too. Definitely saving this recipe for the next time I go to make granola.

July 27, 2010 at 9:21 pmOn a Norweigan Cruise Line ship in December I had Swiss Mueslix for the first time – OMG! I searched online seveal times for their recipe – never found one even close – I’ll def be giving this one a try. BIG THANKS!
Monica
August 3, 2010 at 9:40 amThanks for posting the recipe…it looks awesome! One question, do you think this would work well heated up? I love hot oatmeal with fruit in the mornings and am thinking this would be a great addition to breakfast!

August 17, 2012 at 12:32 pmI’m curious about what is considered a serving size and what the nutritional values calculate? This looks so yummy, I tend to go overboard on portions sizes!
Do you hve any info?
