Crunchy muesli quickly explained
The basis of a delicious crunchy muesli is baked oats. They are baked with honey, maple syrup, agave syrup or sugar in the oven at top and bottom heat. The sweetness caramelizes and binds the oat flakes into crispy, sweet oat flakes, also known as granola or crunchy.
You can use the healthy granola as a topping for yoghurt, porridge, ice cream, delicious bowls or simply as a snack between meals. Nuts, seeds or kernels make the muesli extra crispy.
They also provide important nutrients and add variety to your healthy breakfast. Dried strawberries, blueberries, apricots and other freeze-dried fruits or, depending on the season, fresh fruit, give the whole thing an additional fruity touch.
Making your own crunchy muesli – what should you watch out for?
It's super easy to create your own crunchy muesli. Take wholegrain oats, mix them with honey or maple syrup and bake them at 180 °C on a baking tray lined with baking paper.
After ten minutes, take the oats out of the oven and shake the tray a little. Then let them bake for another 5 minutes. After a total of 15 minutes and some time to cool, you have healthy and delicious crunchy oats.
After the baking time, you have crispy, sweet oat balls that can be combined with other toppings to your heart's content. At verival.de you will find a wide range of delicious products that you can use for your own personal crunchy muesli. When choosing your ingredients, make sure that they are certified organic.
At Verival, some of the ingredients come from our own contract farming or from suppliers that guarantee the best organic quality, fair working conditions and sustainable cultivation. You don't need to worry about seasonality, as the fruit we offer is freeze-dried and therefore has a long shelf life.
What ingredients do I need for my classic crunchy muesli?
A classic crunchy muesli consists of wholegrain oat flakes, nuts, seeds and raisins. However, traditional oats are not the only type of grain that you can use.
At Verival, we love variety and recommend trying einkorn, emmer, spelt, wheat and rye too. All types of grain can be prepared in different ways, e.g. baked, popped or refined with honey.
Try them all! Not everyone likes raisins, but many like fruit. Why not try your muesli with dried cherries, strawberries, blueberries, peach or apricots.
A classic muesli can be rounded off with various toppings, such as nuts, kernels and seeds. They all provide you with additional nutrients that round off your healthy breakfast.

How do I prepare crunchy muesli?
Healthy eating doesn't have to be complicated. Mix your favorite Verival ingredients in an airtight jar. You can add as much muesli as you want to eat. Add fresh milk or a milk alternative. Cold or warm – however you like it. There are no limits to the combinations.
Crunchy muesli with vegan milk alternatives such as almond, hazelnut or soy milk is just as delicious. And of course, there are also vegan sweeteners such as agave or maple syrup. If you like it particularly fruity, then add some fresh berries and grapes. Another tip: if every second counts in the morning, portion out your healthy breakfast cereal in the evening.
It's best to use a glass container with a tight-fitting lid. Glass containers are odorless, so your cereal in the morning won't taste like last week's lunch. Mix all the dry ingredients and prepare all the others you would like to add to your muesli, such as nut butter or similar. In the morning, all you need to do is add your milk or milk alternative and you can enjoy your healthy breakfast.
