Granola and muesli are both popular breakfast cereals made from a mixture of oats, nuts, seeds, and dried fruits.
Granola typically includes ingredients like rolled oats, nuts (such as almonds or pecans), seeds (such as pumpkin or sunflower seeds), dried fruits (such as raisins or cranberries), and sweeteners like honey or maple syrup. The mixture is baked until crispy and can be eaten on its own or with milk or yogurt.
Muesli, on the other hand, is a raw cereal made from a base of rolled oats mixed with nuts, seeds, and dried fruits. It is typically not baked or cooked, and is often soaked in milk or yogurt before eating to soften the oats.
Both granola and muesli are nutritious and filling breakfast options that provide a good source of fiber, protein, and healthy fats. They can be customized with different ingredients to suit individual tastes and dietary preferences.
