The best thing about muesli is that you can add whatever your favourite ingredients are. My basic version uses maple syrup for sweetness and ginger and cinnamon to spice things up. Use this as a basis for the bircher muesli, which is essentially rolled oats soaked in liquid with some grated apple but you can make it as extravagant as you like.
2 cups toasted muesli (sweetened with maple syrup, and with a touch of cinnamon and ginger)
2 cups milk
125ml (1/2 cup) freshly squeezed orange juice
Juice of 1 lemon
2 small granny smith apples, unpeeled and grated
2 oranges, peeled and roughly chopped
2 tbsp flaked almonds
Natural yoghurt to serve
Fresh raspberries to serve
Put muesli in a large bowl with milk, juices, apples, oranges and almonds and stir to combine.
Cover and store in the fridge overnight.
Serve with yoghurt and berries.
