Make delicious low-fat breakfasts by combining crunchy oats with fresh fruit and nuts. 

Ingredients (serves 6)

• 3 cups rolled oats (see note)

• 1 cup thick, plain yoghurt
• 1 cup mixed fresh berries (we used blackberries, strawberries, raspberries)

Method

1. Place oats in a large bowl. Pour over apple juice to cover. Stir to combine. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
2. Just before serving, stir in apple, almonds, 1/4 cup lime juice, 3/4 cup yoghurt and 3/4 cup mixed berries.
3. Spoon muesli into bowls. Top with remaining yoghurt and mixed berries. Drizzle with honey. Serve immediately.

 

Notes

This recipe is best made 1 day in advance. Use regular (not quick-cooking) rolled oats for this recipe. Tip: You could replace the yoghurt in step 3 with milk.
