Instructions

  1. Mix the oat flakes with all the nuts, kernels, seeds and the brown sugar. Please do not use any salted nuts.
  2. Preheat the oven to 180 ° C top / bottom heat.
  3. Now melt the butter and dissolve 2 tablespoons of strong honey in it. Mix well, let stand for about 5 minutes and mix again and again.
  4. Now place half of the nut mixture flat on a baking sheet lined with baking paper and place in the oven on the middle rack. After 8 minutes stir, let roast for another 6 minutes. Stir again (if necessary, let roast for another 3 - 4 minutes, depending on how dark you like it). But be careful: the darker the more bitter substances!
  5. Repeat the process with the rest of the nut mixture (2 trays in total).
  6. In the meantime, use a hand mortar to prepare the spice mixture and add a pinch of salt (I also like 2 pinches). Note: The spices can be varied as you like. For children and / or gifts, for example, I sometimes leave out the tonka bean and the hemp seeds. Not that it`s harmful in any way, but these two ingredients don`t always go down well. Or you should definitely declare it. Better safe than sorry.
  7. Take the baking sheet out of the oven after the last baking process and mix the hot nut muesli with the spice powder in a metal bowl, allow to cool and store in the refrigerator.
  8. How long the muesli can actually be kept has not yet been determined, because by then it was always guaranteed to be eaten.
  9. It`s probably the most expensive granola around, but the result is definitely worth it. Ideal as a small Christmas present and souvenir with extra vanilla, cinnamon, cardamom, anise, clove, honey, tonka bean and all kinds of nuts.
