Bircher Muesli

One thing I love about a good Buffet Breakfast is Bircher Muesli. I've always wanted to make it but never really been motivated enough to do so. Until the other night. I searched the Internet for a recipe but ended up just kinda making it up. I guess the thing with Bircher Muesli is that it has no boundaries. You can put in it what you want to put in it. So here is my version...

Ingredients
2 cups rolled oats
1 cup apple juice
A good bit handful of 'Fruit Medley' (chopped up dried apricots, peaches, pear, sultanas)
Handful shredded coconut
Can Peaches
Tub of Natural Yoghurt

Method
In a bowl (with a lid), place oats, juice, fruit medley and coconut. Stir and cover for at least an hour or overnight.

Place required amount into bowl, serve with yoghurt and peach slices.

Yum. I love Bircher museli. I think there's a recipe for it in one of the early Jamie Oliver books.

I had bircher museli for breakfast almost every day in the summer -- I'd cycle into work early and buy it from a local cafe. They made it with blackberries. Yum.

kimbofo - yeah, I thought I had a recipe for it via a Jamie cookbook, but I think it might be in the one that Sarah is babysitting for me. Might have to get Carol to collect it before her next trip up here for me.
