We love Bircher Muesli! This recipe makes the most of beautiful  home grown navel or valencia oranges. Mandarins or tangelos can also be used. Note: If you use blood oranges the muesli will have a deep pink colour.

1 cup rolled oats
¼ cup freshly squeezed orange juice
1 cup nut milk (or milk of choice)
1 orange for topping, sliced
2 tablespoons chia seeds

Maple syrup, to serve

Method:

  1.  Place the muesli in a medium bowl.
  2.  Pour over the orange juice and milk.
  3.  Cover and place in the fridge overnight to soak
  4.  Divide the muesli mixture among serving bowls.
