Bircher Muesli
Bircher muesli is naturally sweet and tastes delicious. It’s also great for your energy levels as it has a low glycaemic index (keeps you going for longer), is high in soluble fibre (helps to reduce cholesterol) and is packed with vitamins and minerals.

- 1/4 teaspoon ginger or cinnamon
- Optional: honey, fresh fruit, 0% fat Greek yoghurt
Instructions
- Mix the grated apple in a bowl with the ginger/cinnamon, oats, apricots and milk
