Recipe Overview
Light, crunchy, and naturally nourishing.
Our gluten-free muesli recipe is made with quinoa puffs, seeds, and cacao nibs, finished with yoghurt and fresh fruit. It’s an oat-free muesli option that works beautifully as a weekday breakfast or a relaxed weekend brunch.
Built around quinoa puffs, seeds, and cacao nibs, this yoghurt breakfast bowl balances texture and flavour without feeling heavy. The addition of PurQ 100% Plum Powder brings a subtle fruity depth and a naturally vibrant colour, making the bowl feel a little more considered– without adding complexity.

Seeds and cacao nibs add crunch, strawberries bring freshness, and PurQ 100% Plum Powder ties it all together with its vibrant flavour and colour.

Swap strawberries for blueberries or raspberries for a seasonal twist.
Why Go Oat-Free?
Oats are a staple in many breakfast bowls, but they don’t suit everyone. An oat-free muesli can be a helpful alternative for those seeking variety or lighter textures.
Quinoa puffs offer:
-
A naturally gluten-free base
-
A light, crisp crunch
-
A neutral flavour that pairs well with fruit and yoghurt
Combined with seeds and cacao nibs, they create a satisfying foundation that holds up well with yoghurt and toppings.
Make It Your Own
One of the best things about this gluten-free muesli recipe is how adaptable it is.
You can:
-
Swap strawberries for blueberries or raspberries
-
Use coconut yoghurt, Greek yoghurt, or dairy-free alternatives
-
Add nut butter for extra richness
-
Adjust the seed mix based on what you have on hand
It’s a flexible base that works across seasons and preferences.
