Bircher Muesli
Ever tried Bircher Muesli at a hotel breakfast buffet and wondered why it tastes so good? Now you can make it at home - no fancy chef required. 🥣
This easy Bircher Muesli takes just five minutes to prepare and makes the perfect healthy breakfast for busy mornings. It’s made with simple, wholesome ingredients like oats, apple, yoghurt, seeds and almonds. Everything you need for a nourishing start to the day.
You can make it the night before and that’s why I love recipes like this. They make mornings feel calm and organised (even when they’re not). Whether you top it with fresh seasonal fruit, a dollop of yoghurt or a sprinkle of granola, it’s a breakfast you’ll actually look forward to.
If you’re after a healthy breakfast that still feels a little indulgent, this is it. A small bit of prep for a big reward in the morning. 🥣
