Bircher-Muesli

How to Make Bircher Muesli ~ this healthy oat cereal is a traditional Swiss recipe, and I've been loving on it for years.  It's gluten free, full of fiber, and crazy delicious!  Eating it most mornings helps keep my cholesterol in check, too...not bad for a yummy breakfast cereal.

Prep Time
5 mins
soaking time
1 hr
Course: Breakfast
Cuisine: Swiss

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup old fashioned rolled oats don't use steel cut or quick cooking oats
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 peeled apple. grated or chopped squeeze a little lemon juice on the apple to keep it from browning
  • 1 tbsp of sliced almonds
  • 1 tbsp Chopped hazelnuts
  • 1 tbsp raisins
  • 1 tbsp dried strawberries my newest obsession
  • A drizzle of honey

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Combine the milk with the oats and let them soak in the refrigerator for an hour.
  2. Mix in your fruit and nuts, drizzle on some honey and enjoy.

Notes

  • Make it non dairy ~ traditionally made with dairy milk, muesli is just as wonderful made with coconut milk, or any type of nut milk.  I used my own Homemade Almond Milk.
  • Make it with other grains ~ you can actually make muesli with any rolled grain such as wheat, rye, or barley, check your local health food store.
