This is a traditional German breakfast I learned when I lived in Munich for a number of years.
Ingredients, serves 2
70-100g mixed nut and seeds e.g. almonds and sunflower seeds. Pumpkin seeds with Brazil nuts work well too.
1 apple or other fruit, roughly chopped or grated.
Cinnamon or mint, optional.
Method
- Soak the almonds and sunflower seeds overnight in filtered water.
- In the morning drain and rinse the nuts and seeds in a sieve and add to a small food processor or chop up by hand.
- In the food processor, add fruit and pulse a few times to combine. If working without a food processor, grate or chop the fruit and stir through.
- Add some cinnamon if desired and enjoy as a muesli.
TIP: Larger quantities makes it easier to chop in a food processor. Small amounts may just be thrown to the sides of larger processors. A wide bowl food processor actually works best for this as it incorporates more air into the mixture which keeps it chunkier and prevents the mixture from pureeing.
