Original Swiss «Bircher Muesli» recipe from Dr. Bircher-Benner

rolled oats

🥗Healthier: quinoa flakes

💰Cheaper: instant oats

Quinoa flakes are gluten-free and nutritious.

yogurt

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: sour cream

Greek yogurt is higher in protein.

honey

🥗Healthier: maple syrup

💰Cheaper: agave syrup

Maple syrup offers a unique flavor.

fresh berries

🥗Healthier: frozen berries

💰Cheaper: canned fruit

Frozen berries are often more affordable.

Mix the oats, water and the condensed milk in a small bowl.

Squeeze the lemon and add the juice to the other ingredients.

Wash the apples and grate them whole on a «Bircher-Raffel» until nothing but the stalk, calyx and some seeds are left.

Mix as soon as possible after grating in the apples, otherwise they will oxidize.

Add the ground nuts on top and enjoy.
