Homemade Toasted Muesli

Homemade Toasted Muesli is a very healthy and nutritious option for a quick and easy breakfast. It is very easy and is made by toasting oats, nuts , honey and coconut oil together in an oven. The toasted muesli can be stored in the airtight containers for 15-20 days and is very economical and tasty to the store brought muesli. Enjoy the toasted muesli with cold milk, or sprinkle it on your yogurt. I loved to munch it throughout the day like little snack. Make it once and you will never buy the store brought muesli. Also it is gluten free and vegan. It is a very healthy gifting snack. Pack the muesli in small fancy glass jars and decorate the jar with ribbons and the healthy gift pack is ready!!
