Deep Dark Chocolate Muesli

Ingredients

  • 2 cups rolled oats (not quick oats)
  • 1/2 cup slivered almonds or other favorite chopped nuts
  • 1 cup Uncle Sam's Cereal or crisp brown rice cereal
  • 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
  • 1/3 cup golden raisins , regular raisins, or dried cranberries
  • 2 to 3 ounces finely chopped bittersweet chocolate (1/3 to 1/2 cup or so)
  • 1/4 cup chia seeds , hemp seeds, or ground flax meal (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Put the rolled oats and almonds on a baking sheet and bake until lightly toasted and fragrant, about 20 minutes.
  3. Remove baking sheet and let the oats and nuts cool for about 10 minutes.
  4. In a large bowl, mix the oats, nuts, cereal, pumpkin seeds, raisins, chocolate, and chia seeds. The chocolate may melt a bit and form little clumps, which is part of what makes it tasty.
  5. Store in an air-tight container.
