Muesli

Ingredients

• 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
• 0.5 cup Greek yogurt (preferably full-fat)
• 0.5 cup milk or nondairy milk (plus more as needed to thin)
• 2 apples (medium, grated on the large holes of a box grater)
• 0.33 cup chopped pecans
• 2 tbsp tahini (optional; adds richness)
• 2 tbsp golden raisins
• 2 tbsp dried cherries
• fresh fruit, dried fruit, chopped nuts and maple syrup (any combination for serving)

Steps

1. 1

   In a container with a lid, stir together the oats, yogurt, milk, grated apples, pecans, tahini (if using), raisins, and cherries until well combined.

2. 2

   Cover the container and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 4 days, to allow the oats to soften and flavors to meld.

3. 3

   Stir the muesli before serving. If the mixture has become too thick, add a bit more milk to reach your desired consistency.

4. 4

   Top individual servings with additional fresh or dried fruit, nuts, and a drizzle of maple syrup as desired.

Notes

Tahini adds richness, but you can substitute another nut butter (like almond or cashew) or skip it entirely. Dates are an excellent substitute for the dried fruit. For a more traditional Swiss version, consider adding a dash of lemon juice or a little whipped cream before serving.
