    Oats, coconut, pumpkin seeds, and raisins combine with flavors like cinnamon and vanilla to make a nutritious and convenient breakfast!

    Coconut and Pumpkin Seed Muesli

    For me, breakfast is the best meal of the day.

    Among my favorite recipes are my Choco-Berry Smoothie Bowl, eggs with Food for Life's cinnamon raisin English muffins, pancakes, and any kind of oatmeal-based cereal.

    Coconut and Pumpkin Seed Muesli

    Here in Arizona, it remains warm up until Thanksgiving, which I've come to enjoy, but it definitely doesn't feel very seasonal.

    Yesterday morning was my first time breaking in the heater, which was odd considering I wished I was in the pool a few days prior to that.

    Despite the impending weather change, I've really been enjoying this cold coconut muesli bowl.

    This is a bit different from overnight oats in that there is more emphasis on add-ins, including coconut, pumpkin seeds, raisins, and fresh apple.

    By mixing everything together the night before, you still have the convenience of the aforementioned with a bigger punch of nutrition and flavor.

    Notes:

    I love to use my Homemade Coconut Milk in this recipe.

    Feel free to add a drizzle of honey on top for extra sweetness, if you desire.

    I usually share this with my kids or break this up for breakfast/snacks during the week.

    Random Fun Fact:
    I tried my first overnight oats recipe back in 2011 after my second daughter was born. My husband and I were hooked from the beginning, and he has since passed the easy breakfast onto various firemen at his department.

      I love this muesli. A lot. Did away with the apple this time and subbed almonds and sunflower seeds for pumpkin seeds. It was so good I didn't even need to add Stevia, just a touch of honey! And how awesome that your husband shared a healthy, tasty recipe with others. We need to pass on more goodness in the world 😀 Thanks for your continued sharing!

      Hi Lauren!

      I was taken to your blog/this recipe when I searched in google for a pumpkin seed oatmeal. Made this this AM and I was soo surprised that it was so good! You're right, you do not sacrifice taste! Just started to follow you on Instagram... looking forward to more healthy, sugar conscious recipes 🙂

      Thank you Lauren!
