Bircher Muesli – gluten free
Sometimes if I’m in a rush and want nourishment in the morning I make this really easy gluten free style muesli and serve it with low fat natural yoghurt and some fresh seasonal fruit. You can prepare the night before and let the nuts and seeds soak a little with the yoghurt or eat straight away. I like to make a big batch and store in a glass covered jar in the fridge for maximum freshness. This muesi is great if you have any digestive issues – try serving with chunks of papaya which helps aid digestion.

Great recipe and also fantastic with warm stewed apples (fresh from our tree) for autumn. Thank you for so many great recipes and helping fuel my marathon training. Your recipes have made a huge difference!!
Fantastic recipe, Teresa! I made it with pecans instead of walnuts and added some dates as well and it’s delicious. I think I’ve found my new breakfast!
