This no-cook recipe blends old-fashioned rolled oats and whole wheat flakes with a medley of almonds, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, raisins, and dried apricots, offering a satisfying crunch and natural sweetness in every bite. Softened in unsweetened apple juice and enriched with creamy low-fat yogurt and a drizzle of honey, this muesli delivers guilt-free indulgence with every spoonful. Topped with fresh fruit like berries or bananas, itβs a vibrant, fiber-rich dish thatβs brimming with protein, essential vitamins, and energizing goodness. Ready in minutes with minimal prep, itβs an ideal choice for health-conscious eaters who crave flavor and convenience.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, unsweetened apple juice, and whole wheat flakes. Mix well until all the oats are evenly coated with the juice. This helps to soften the oats.
Add the chopped almonds, raisins, chopped dried apricots, sunflower seeds, and pumpkin seeds to the oat mixture. Stir the ingredients together until they are well distributed throughout the mixture.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate the muesli mixture for at least 2 hours, or overnight. This allows the flavors to meld together and the oats to soften.
Just before serving, take the muesli out of the refrigerator and add the low-fat yogurt and honey. Stir thoroughly to combine until the mixture is creamy and the honey is fully incorporated.
Divide the muesli into four bowls. Top each serving with fresh fruit such as berries or banana slices to add a fresh and vibrant touch.
Serve immediately and enjoy a nutritious, low-fat breakfast or snack!
