  3. Spoon the sweet mixture on the baking pan and bake in the pre-heated to 180 C (356 F) oven for about 20 minutes. Do not forget to stir every 7-10 minutes to prevent the mixture from burning. It is recommended to use baking paper for this purpose as well. Then take the baking pan away from the oven and let the golden mixture cool down a bit. Break or cut it afterwards.

History of the Fruit Salad with Crispy Muesli

Fruit salads have been around for centuries, but the addition of muesli as a topping is a relatively new development. Muesli, a mixture of grains, nuts, and dried fruits, originated in Switzerland in the early 20th century as a healthy breakfast option. Over time, people began to sprinkle muesli on top of yogurt, fruit, and other dishes to add a crunchy texture and nutritious boost. This recipe for fruit salad with crispy muesli is a modern twist on the classic dish, combining fresh fruit, creamy yogurt, and homemade muesli for a delicious and healthy breakfast or dessert.

Tips and Tricks for Fruit Salad with Crispy Muesli Recipe

  • Use a variety of fruits: The beauty of a fruit salad is that you can use whatever fruits are in season or that you have on hand. This recipe calls for kiwi, plum, strawberries, and melon, but feel free to add or substitute other fruits as desired.
  • Toast the muesli: Toasting the oat flakes and nuts before mixing them with honey and olive oil creates a crispy, nutty mixture that adds depth and texture to the salad.
  • Use Greek yogurt: Greek yogurt has a thicker, creamier consistency than regular yogurt, which makes it perfect for this recipe. It also has more protein and less sugar than regular yogurt, making the salad even healthier.
  • Adjust the sweetness: The recipe calls for a teaspoon of vanilla sugar, but you can adjust the sweetness to your taste by adding more or less honey or sugar powder.

Tips for presenting the dish

  • Use a clear glass bowl or trifle dish to show off the layers of fruit and muesli, and to create an attractive display.
  • Sprinkle extra shredded coconut, nuts, or dried fruits on top of the salad for added visual interest and flavor.
  • Chill the salad for at least an hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the yogurt to set.
  • Serve the salad with a dollop of whipped cream or a drizzle of chocolate sauce for an extra indulgent touch.
