I have been trying to find a cereal for ages that I can eat without getting bored of it after a week, and I have finally discovered it!  New out this summer, fruit and nut bar brand, Eat Natural, has launched a range of toasted muselis – and they have totally revolutionised my mornings.

What usually annoys me most about museli is an overload of flour, lack of taste and cardboard flakes, but there is none of this at all in Eat Natural’s recipes.

While I have so far only tried two, they are both delicious, bursting with so many different flavours, and nice crispy textures, that I can’t wait to try the others.

Taking 18 months to develop the range, you can see they have been developed with a lot of careful thought.  There are also two which are totally gluten free.

Harriet Gregory, who looks after ‘Food Matters’ at the Eat Natural Makery, comments; “Our whole premise at Eat Natural, is about making simple foods that taste absolutely gorgeous.  All the nuts, seeds and cereals in our muesli are specially roasted to add flavour and toastiness.  We’re still using familiar, delicious ingredients, like juicy dried fruit, but have also experimented with more unusual stuff like buckwheat and some unique stuff of our own, like our lovely, wholesome toasted ryecrumbs.  And yes, some of our ingredients, like rich, dark chocolate, are a bit on the indulgent side too, but well…you’ve got to ‘live a little’ sometimes.”

The five recipes available are:

…for every day.

A mix of roasted oats and toasted flakes of spelt and corn mixed with crunchy brazils, hazelnuts, sunflowers seeds, juicy sultanas, raisins and honey.

…with nuts and seeds.

A crunchy mix of roasted hazelnuts and almonds, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds and linseeds with toasted ryecrumbs, oats, coconuts, crisped rice and honey.

…with chocolate.

An indulgent blend of sweet cranberries, roasted oats and spelt flakes, macadamias, juicy sultanas, coconut, and toasted dark chocolate ryecrumbs.

…with vine fruit.

A fruity mix of juicy sultanas and raisins, with sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds and linseeds, almonds and honey.

…with buckwheat.

A blend of toasted buckwheat and crisped rice with raisins, mixed seeds, coconut, honey, and a pinch of cinnamon.

I can’t recommend them more highly, they are nutritious, tasty and reasonably priced, what more could one want?

Eat Natural’s Toasted Mueslis are available in Waitrose, priced at approximately £2.99.
