Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 150 grams rolled oats
- 200 milliliters skim milk
- 100 grams low-fat plain yogurt
- 1 medium apple
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 50 grams raisins
- 100 grams fresh berries
- 25 grams almonds
- 0.5 teaspoons cinnamon
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, skim milk, and low-fat plain yogurt. Mix well to ensure the oats are fully coated and soaked.
Wash the apple thoroughly, and using a grater, shred the entire apple including the skin, leaving out the core and seeds.
Add the grated apple to the oat mixture, and stir in the lemon juice immediately to prevent the apple from browning.
Add the honey and raisins to the bowl, mixing thoroughly to incorporate all the ingredients evenly.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid, and place it in the refrigerator. Allow the mixture to soak overnight or at least 4 hours to let the oats soften and flavors meld.
When ready to serve, remove from the refrigerator and give the muesli a quick stir.
Divide the mixture into 4 serving bowls.
Garnish each bowl with a small handful of fresh berries and a sprinkle of almonds.
Finish with a dash of cinnamon on top and enjoy your refreshing, low-fat Bircher muesli.
