Expert Tips
- If using unsweetened yoghurt (like greek or natural) add honey (as much as little as you like).
- If using sweetened fruit or vanilla yoghurt you won't need to add honey (unless of course, you'd like to!)
- Omit the nuts entirely for a nut-free muesli.
- Use full cream (not skim) milk. You can use almond milk or soy milk instead.
- You can use any variety of apple you like.
- I generally use rolled oats, however quick oats can also be used.
- It's important to chill the Thermomix bircher muesli overnight so that the oats soak up the milk and juice and form a deliciously rich and creamy muesli.
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
- This recipe is not suitable for freezing.
FAQs
Yes! Bircher muesli is also called overnight oats. The name is important as the oats soak up the yoghurt, milk and juice overnight and make a deliciously soft and creamy muesli by the morning.
