Description
One of my favourite ways to use my slow cooker, is to cook a healthy muesli recipe in it. I make this slow cooker muesli with almonds and oranges, it's GREAT and so healthy! Think granola, only easier!!!
Ingredients
¼ cup almond meal
½ cup almonds
3 cups oats
1 organic orange zested and juiced
½ cup macadamia, coconut or avocado oil
⅓ cup maple syrup
Pinch salt
Instructions
STEP 1: Turn your cooker high and pop the lid on. This will help it heat up as you make the muesli in a mixing bowl.
STEP 2: Now stir the muesli ingredients in a separate bowl and pop it into your cooker.
STEP 3: Turn it high for 2 hours and pop a tea towel under the lid to catch any condensation. Stir it every 30-mins or so if you are home. If your lid is a very tight pressure cooker, leave it off and cook it longer; otherwise, the muesli will not crisp up.
STEP 4: When the time is done, it’ll have lovely colour. Turn your cooker off and leave it to cool completely with the lid off. It will brown up even further. And this is when it will crisp up.
STEP 5: Don't pop it into a container until it's completely cool. You'll be amazed that as it cools in the slow cooker, how much it crisps up.
Notes
GF: Sub the oats for quinoa flakes
Add extra protein: Add 1 tbsp protein powder to the wet mix
