I am SO excited to share this recipe with you!
I for one can't get enough of it...
* Spa Day Bircher Muesli *
The first time I made this, it was meant to be a special breakfast for two. I prepped it on Sunday evening to sit overnight in the fridge.
Monday morning brought on the heat, and this was a wonderfully refreshing breakfast for a hot day. Full of goodness with apples, oats, and coconut yogurt; and topped with fresh fruit, toasted almonds and a drizzle of maple syrup; it was absolutely delectable! My mom and I gobbled it all up!
This was far beyond any of the overnight oats recipes I have eaten! The flavor is magical and exploding in its abundance, and there's a freshness and creaminess about it that can't be beat.
I've already made this recipe three more times since. Fresh sliced peach and toasted chopped walnuts is a great option on top that I've tried as well.
Modifications:
Angela has you grate one of the apples on a box grater. If you don't have a box grater, don't worry! You can still make this recipe—just dice it like the other apple.
One time that I made it, I didn't peel the apples to save time. I honestly didn't notice the difference. So, unless you have a real aversion to apple peels, you can totally go for leaving them on and cut down a minute or two on the prep.
Really though... the prep is almost non-existent. There are six ingredients! All you've got to do after prepping the apples is mix everything together.
Tip:
I really recommend using pure coconut yogurt to make this. I have used this one from the COYO brand. The coconut yoghurt adds the best depth of flavor... plus you get the full vegan experience!
However, if you are unable to get coconut, I did try using plain greek-yogurt instead; which worked fine.
