Published: Jan 19, 2023 by Katrin Nürnberger · This post may contain affiliate links · 1 Comment

It is simple to make tasty, crunchy keto muesli at home! You can prepare a big batch in minutes. This low carb breakfast cereal is filling, healthy and nutritious.

This low carb muesli is one of the most useful recipes ever. Because it does not only taste delicious, but it will also it save you money.

Whenever I check how much keto or paleo muesli costs in the stores, I gasp at the price. They cost a fortune! Also, shop-bought keto cereal tends to be way too sweet for my liking.

I am a breakfast cereal lover. Give me an almond milk matcha latte and a bowl of something crunchy and I'm happy.

I love my low carb granola, these easy keto granola bars or my sugar-free version of cinnamon crunch cereal. I am so happy that this sugar free muesli is now completing the list.

Muesli is the simple, no-nonsense version of granola. It is easier, quicker and just as satisfying. I'm talking about muesli without oats and no added sugar, of course!

My recipe consists of nutritious nuts, seeds and coconut. It is so easy and quick to put together. Feel free to double or triple the recipe!

I don't only eat it for breakfast, by the way. It also makes a wonderful snack, on its own or with a little yogurt.

Ingredients

Here are the ingredients you'll need:

• Coconut chips - I bought mine toasted as they have a better flavor. Raw coconut flakes work as well.
• Sliced almonds - or any other nuts of your choice
• Hemp seeds - High in protein, also called hemp hearts. I did not toast these because they burn quickly. If you like, add them to the pan towards the end.
• Sunflower seeds
• Pumpkin seeds
• Ground cinnamon

Instructions

This is a really simple recipe. The one trick is toasting the seeds and the almonds. This increase the flavor immensely.

Step 1: Toast the sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds and flaked almonds in a dry frying pan over a low heat. Stir regularly until golden brown and the pumpkin seeds begin to pop. Let cool.

Step 2: Put all ingredients into a bowl and stir to combine. Then, fill into a mason jar or airtight container and store at room temperature until ready to use.

Recipe FAQs

Substitutions

Feel free to change up the muesli by using anything suitable you may find in your cupboard. Here are some ideas:

• Nuts: Walnuts, chopped almonds, pecans, hazelnuts
• Seeds: Sesame seeds, flax seeds, chia seeds
• Shredded coconut (desiccated coconut)

How to serve

I like to eat muesli with unsweetened almond milk. You can also serve it with Greek yogurt, kefir or chocolate yogurt.

If you like, add some berries on top. Raspberries, chopped strawberries or blackberries are great low carb fruit options. I added fresh blueberries and freeze-dried cranberries.

Another idea is to sprinkle over some freeze-dried raspberries or blueberries.

Or, add sugar-free dried cranberries or dried barberries (as a lower carb replacement for raisins).

Keto muesli also tastes great all on its own - like a healthy trail mix. If you are on the go, simply put a portion in a ziplock bag. It is a great snack or quick breakfast while travelling or commuting.

Storage

Store in a mason jar or any airtight container in the kitchen cupboard. It stays fresh for around 3 months.

Option to store it in the fridge if you prefer.
