Method

- Leave the mixture to cool on the tray, then break it up into small chunks and stir in the sultanas and apricots.
- Put the muesli in a jar ready for breakfast. To make it suitable for magic reindeer, put a few spoonful’s into a small paper bag and mix in some sweets.
- Tie the paper bag with string or a ribbon and add a fun label for Father Christmas to find.
