Ok, I know - the idea of roasting and mixing your own muesli makes me sound like I have no life at all. But I don't like most commercial mueslis, and I wanted something not-awfully-bad-for-you to keep at work. This was actually fast, took virtually no work, and tastes great. But watch this in the oven - it can burn REALLY quickly. The measurements are in deciliters, which, I'll remind you converts like this: 1 dl - 0.4 cups.
Honey Roasted Muesli
7 dl cornflakes
4 dl rolled oats
1,5 dl wheathusks (Um.. don't know the proper name. Vetekli in Swedish, it's made from the inner husk of the wheat. Suggestion from readers: wheat bran!)
2 dl sunflower seeds
1 dl flax seeds
1 dl mixed nuts (I used hazelnuts, almonds and walnuts)
1 tsp salt
1 dl runny honey
200 g dried apricots, the soft and fluffy kind
Preheat the oven to 175 degrees C. (350F) Chop the nuts roughly, and sliver the apricots. Mix all the dry ingredients (not the honey, not the apricots) in a big bowl. Add the honey while mixing constantly. Pour into a large baking pan (you will probably have to do half at a time) and roast for 7-12 minutes. The muesli should turn golden, but not burn. Take out, repeat with the other half of the batch. Mix in the apricots. Keep in a tight-lidded container.
