Fruity Bircher Muesli

This satisfying breakfast dish contains grated apple and I've made Bircher-Benner's recipe more contemporary by replacing cream with Greek yoghurt + milk and adding some orange juice to up the fruitiness.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 150g (5oz) Everyday Healthy Cereal or your favourite unsweetened muesli - choose one containing plenty of nuts and fruits
  • 250ml (1 cup) orange juice
  • 1 apple, cored and grated (leaving the skin on)
  • 150g (5oz) Greek yoghurt
  • 100-150ml (approx 1/2 cup) milk of your choice - I used semi-skimmed dairy milk adjusting the amount of milk depending on how runny you like it (150ml was perfect for me)

Instructions

  1. Place all the ingredients in a large bowl and mix well.
  2. Cover the bowl with a lid and store in the fridge overnight. I like to divide the Fruity Bircher Muesli into individual portions the following day but this isn't essential.
  3. This will sit beautifully in the fridge for 3 to 4 days.

Serve as it is or with toppings of your choice (including, fruits, nuts and seeds) - I've talked through some suggestions in this overnight oats post
