Carrot and apple bircher

Carrot and apple bircher is a healthy and delicious way to start your day. This nutritious recipe combines the goodness of oats, carrots, apples, and Greek yogurt, making it a perfect breakfast option for busy mornings. With the added crunch of sunflower seeds and a hint of cinnamon, this bircher is both satisfying and flavorful.

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Carrot and Apple:
- Wash and peel the carrot, then grate it into fine shreds.
- Wash the apple, remove the core, and grate it as well. You may leave the skin on for added texture and nutrients.
2. Combine Dry Ingredients:
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, add the oats, grated carrot, grated apple, and cinnamon.
3. Add Seeds and Yogurt:
- Stir in the sunflower seeds.
- Add the Greek yogurt to the mixture and combine well. Ensure all ingredients are well-mixed and the oats are evenly distributed.
4. Mix Thoroughly:
- Stir the mixture until all ingredients are well incorporated. The consistency should be thick but uniform.
5. Refrigerate Overnight:
- Transfer the mixture to an airtight container or cover the bowl with plastic wrap.
- Place it in the refrigerator and let it sit overnight. This allows the oats to soften and flavors to meld together.
6. Serve:
- In the morning, give the bircher a good stir.
- If desired, you can add a splash of milk or additional yogurt to adjust the consistency.
- Top with extra sunflower seeds, a drizzle of honey, or fresh fruit slices if you like.
7. Enjoy:
- Your carrot and apple bircher is now ready to be enjoyed as a nutritious and delicious breakfast!

Tips:

- Grate the carrot and apple finely to ensure they mix well with the oats and yogurt.

- For added sweetness, you can include a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup.

- Feel free to add some dried fruits like raisins or cranberries for extra texture and flavor.

- If you prefer a thinner consistency, add a splash of milk or a dairy-free alternative.

- Prepare the bircher in a mason jar or a portable container for a convenient grab-and-go breakfast.

With minimal preparation the night before, overnight carrot and apple bircher is a convenient and wholesome breakfast solution that you can quickly grab and enjoy. Not only is it packed with nutrients, but it also offers a delightful combination of textures and flavors that will leave you feeling energized and ready to tackle the day.
