Excellent muesli. I just love when breakfast has already been made and is ready for me in the morning. This has such a great combination of flavors..cinnamon, nutmeg, currants, juice, etc... I really love the crunch of the almonds. I used fresh blueberries on top. The honey drizzle is yummy. Made for ZWT7 for the Golden Gourmets.Reply

Delicious version of muesli. I liked the currents in this although would have preferred it without banana. I also loved it with the fresh seasonal strawberries and raspberries I put on top. I would definitely use strawberries again in this. I used Allens apple juice, thick yogurt, allspice in place of nutmeg as we do not consume intoxicants, red delicious apple, as that is what I had on hand but can see it would be great with granny smith, creamed honey, plus the rest of the called for ingredients. I may make this again. Made for ZWT7 Switzerland, for my team Food.CommandosReply
