Bircher Muesli with Apple and Honey

Bircher Muesli with Apple and Honey

“Bircher muesli was invented by a Swiss doctor in the 1900s and honestly he was onto something. It’s lighter than overnight oats, more complex in flavour, and the grated apple gives it a freshness that I love. I make it the night before and it keeps well for two days in the fridge.”

What You’ll Need

• 1 cup rolled oats
• 1 cup apple juice (or milk if you prefer)
• ½ cup Greek yoghurt
• 1 apple, coarsely grated
• 2 tbsp flaked almonds
• 1 tbsp honey
• Juice of ½ lemon
• MORNING TOPPINGS: fresh fruit, extra yoghurt, toasted seeds

Let’s Cook — Step by Step

1. Step 1 — Combine oats and apple juice in a bowl or jar. Stir, cover, and refrigerate overnight.
2. Step 2 — In the morning, mix in Greek yoghurt, grated apple (squeezed of excess juice first), flaked almonds, honey, and lemon juice. Stir well.
3. Step 3 — The texture should be thick and spoonable. Add a splash of milk if it’s too thick.
4. Step 4 — Spoon into bowls and top with fresh fruit, a dollop of yoghurt, and a scatter of toasted seeds.

Kitchen Tip: Squeeze excess juice from the grated apple before adding it, otherwise the muesli becomes watery.
