Start your day with a nutritious and delicious twist on traditional muesli by preparing an Apple and Hazelnut Bircher Muesli. This recipe combines the natural sweetness of apples and honey with the crunch of hazelnuts and pistachios for a balanced and satisfying breakfast.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the 2 cups of oats with 1 cup of apple juice. Stir well to ensure the oats are fully coated in apple juice.
- Cover the bowl and place it in the refrigerator to soak overnight, or for at least 4 hours.
- Just before serving, wash and grate the apple. You can leave the skin on for added texture and nutrients, if you prefer.
- Take the soaked oats out of the refrigerator.
- Add the grated apple, 3/4 cup of Greek yogurt, and 1 tsp of vanilla extract to the oats. Stir thoroughly to combine all the ingredients.
- Chop the 1/2 cup of hazelnuts and 1/3 cup of pistachio nuts roughly. Add them to the bowl of oat mixture.
- Stir in the 1 tbsp of sesame seeds and 1 tsp of cinnamon. Mix all ingredients thoroughly.
- Drizzle 1/4 cup of honey over the mixture. Stir well to ensure the honey is evenly distributed throughout the muesli.
- Spoon the muesli into bowls. You can add additional toppings like fresh fruit, more nuts, or a sprinkle of cinnamon if desired.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious, nutritious Apple and Hazelnut Bircher Muesli!
Tips:
- Use fresh, crisp apples for the best texture and flavor. Grate them just before mixing to avoid browning.
- For added flavor, toast the hazelnuts and pistachio nuts lightly in a pan before chopping and adding to the muesli.
- Prepare the muesli the night before to allow the oats to fully absorb the apple juice and other flavors, resulting in a creamier texture.
- Adjust the consistency of the muesli by adding more or less apple juice or yogurt based on your preference.
- For a vegan option, substitute the Greek yogurt with a plant-based alternative and replace honey with maple syrup or agave nectar.
