The breakfast bowl you'll want to eat every morning!


Coconut, Fig + Cinnamon Toasted Muesli (with coconut, rhubarb and strawberry compote).

They don’t call breakfast the most important meal of the day for no reason, do they? So to start your day the right way, give your body the nourishment it deserves. This ridiculously yummy breakfast bowl (compliments of H2Coco) is a cinch to make and will ensure you’re prepped and ready for the week ahead — no more excuses!

Ingredients

Coconut and Cinnamon Toasted Muesli
  • 200g coconut oil like H2coco Organic Virgin Coconut Oil
  • 150g honey
  • 1tsp ground cinnamon
  • 750g rolled oats
  • 75g toasted pepitas
  • 75g toasted sunflower seeds
  • 50g goji berries
  • 150g toasted shredded coconut
  • 300g dried figs, finely sliced
  • 2tsp ground cinnamon
Coconut, Rhubarb and Strawberry Compote
  • 200g rhubarb, roughly chopped
  • 100g frozen strawberries
  • 2tbs coconut oil
  • 30ml water
  • 2 orange peel strips
  • 1 cinnamon stick 
  • 1⁄2 vanilla bean

Method

  • Pre-heat your oven to 160’C.
  • For the muesli, place the coconut oil, honey and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon into a saucepan and over a medium to low heat. Heat the mixture and stir with a whisk for 3 minutes, until all the ingredients are combined.
  • Divide the oats into two oven trays lined with baking paper and pour over the coconut mixture. Stir through the mix so the each oat is covered in the oil. 
  • Place the trays into the oven and roast the oats for 40 minutes, stirring the oats every 10 minutes.
  • Once the oats are golden brown, take them out of the oven and leave them to cool, making sure you continue stirring the oats every 5 minutes to prevent the oats from sticking together. 
  • Once the oats have cooled completely add the rest of the dry ingredients and give the muesli a good stir.
  • While the oats are toasting, prepare the compote by adding all the ingredients together in a small saucepan. Place the saucepan on the stove over a medium to low heat and cook the mixture down for 10 minutes, or until it has reduced to your desired consistency. Leave the mixture to cool before serving.
  • Serve the muesli with yoghurt, the compote and fresh fruit.
