Today’s recipe you can barely call a recipe… it’s so quick and easy but tastes sooooo good. It’s like eating carrot cake batter, if that sounds as good to you as it does to me.
I think a lot of people think of muesli as a boring, tasteless health food thing but this version is a real treat.
Packed with comforting, fruity flavours and different textures. I’m obsessed with it right now.
As well as being a quick, instant muesli, you can also make this into bircher museli (or overnight oats.) Simply mix all the ingredients together in a jar and leave in the fridge overnight. In the morning, you will have a softer, easier-to-digest mixture for breakfast!
This muesli is:
- dairy-free
- vegan
- gluten-free (make sure you use certified gluten-free oats
- raw
- soy-free

This was INSANELY good!! I never thought something so delicious and healthy could be so easy!
I always make overnight oats for my partner and I’m so happy I gave these a try, this was just on a whole other level!
Thank you so much for the recipe, I can’t wait to try more xo
Hi Aimee!
Wow, I can’t believe you have this recipe – I just have to comment. : )
My Grandmother’s boyfriend has been eating a version of this since for breakfast since I was 15, and he is now 94 – and only this last month moved into a retirement village!!
You have such a lovely blog Aimee, and I wish you all of the best for your move to Brighton.

What a great spin on carrot cake. So yummy yet so healthy. I agree with Natalie – I would love to put a dollop of frozen whipped topping on the top!
My somewhat sensitive stomach would want me to wait for the overnight version, but my carrot cake loving tastebuds would argue otherwise haha! I think this might be better than the actual cake. Plus it’s so healthy that I would not hesitate one bit at putting a big dollop of something whipped or frozen and creamy on top as the “frosting” :)
