Chocolate Peanut Butter Bircher Muesli
Bircher muesli is the perfect solution for a nourishing, hearty and nutritious breakfast on the fly. Prepare the night before, and you will be all set for the morning. Just add your toppings and go! A fantastic breakfast to bring to work or school. This recipe uses simple, all natural ingredients including oats, fruit and creamy yoghurt. Oats are incredibly healthy and a great source of many important vitamins and minerals as well as fibre which, along with the healthy fats in the yoghurt, helps to make this a filling and nutritious breakfast. You can add as many fillings or toppings as you like, or eat it by itself for a simple pre-made breakfast.Not only is bircher muesli delicious but it kickstarts your day on the right note, providing a healthy breakfast that you can feel good about and that will keep you full until lunchtime.Traditionally bircher muesli and overnight oats are made with rolled oats that are soaked for several hours or overnight, however, I’m never that organised! So, I have created this ‘quick bircher’ that can be enjoyed fresh as soon as it has been made.This delicious bircher muesli is perfect for busy mornings and can be enjoyed adults and children alike. The recipe can be easily adjusted to what you have in the pantry and is so simple to make.
