Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 100 g Rolled oats
- 250 ml Unsweetened almond milk (or other low-fat milk alternatives)
- 100 g Low-fat plain yogurt
- 1 Apple (grated)
- 1 tbsp Honey (optional)
- 1 tbsp Chia seeds
- 1 tsp Lemon juice
- 50 g Fresh berries (e.g., blueberries, raspberries, or strawberries)
- 10 g Nuts (optional, e.g., slivered almonds or chopped walnuts)
Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond milk, and chia seeds. Stir well to ensure the chia seeds are evenly distributed.
Add the low-fat plain yogurt to the mixture and mix until thoroughly combined.
Grate the apple (with or without the skin, as preferred) and stir it into the bowl.
Add the lemon juice and honey (if using) for a touch of sweetness and a hint of tanginess. Mix well.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the mixture to an airtight container. Refrigerate overnight or for at least 6 hours to allow the oats and chia seeds to soak and soften.
Before serving, give the muesli a good stir. Divide the mixture into two bowls or jars.
Top with fresh berries and a sprinkling of nuts, if desired, for added texture and flavor.
Serve chilled and enjoy!
