Ingredients

50g butter plus extra for greasing
125ml clear honey (acacia is good)
300g jumbo rolled oats
85g mixed nuts (e.g. macadamia and flaked almonds)
50g desiccated or flaked coconut
1 tsp vanilla extract
85g mixed dried fruits (e.g. cranberries and raisins)
1 tbsp finely chopped crystallised ginger (optional)
500g pot natural yogurt
1 mango
100g blueberry

Method

Melt the butter and honey with a pinch of salt in a small pan. Combine the rolled oats, mixed nuts, coconut and vanilla in a large bowl, then stir in the melted butter mixture until all the dry ingredients are coated.
Set your oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Butter a large baking tray lightly. Spread the muesli mixture evenly on the tray. Bake for 10 mins, then stir the mixture thoroughly, paying attention to the corners. Bake for another 5-10 mins until it becomes a light golden brown. Stir in the dried fruits and ginger, if using. Allow it to cool completely before storing in an airtight container for up to 1 month.
For each serving, divide the yogurt between four bowls. Prepare the mango by peeling it and slicing thinly around the stone. Add the mango slices and blueberries to the bowls, then finish by sprinkling the prepared crunchy muesli over the top.
