Overnight Oats, Swiss Müesli Style
This dish combines the preparation of the popular overnight oats with a century-old breakfast staple: Swiss müesli.
Course: Breakfast
Keyword: oatmeal, oats, overnight oats
Servings: 1 large portion
- 1/3 cup plain or vegan Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon honey, or maple syrup if making vegan
- 1/2 cup whole rolled oats, gluten-free if desired
- 1/2 cup almond milk, or soymilk
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 tablespoon walnuts, chopped
- 1 tablespoon golden raisins
- Pinch of cinnamon
Optional toppings:
- 1/2 cup mixed berries
- 1 teaspoon chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon flax seeds
- coconut shavings
Add the yogurt and honey or maple syrup to a bowl (or Mason jar) and thoroughly mix until completely blended. Add the oats, almond milk, water, walnuts, golden raisins, and cinnamon. Stir well to combine, cover with an airtight covering or lid, and refrigerate for at least a few hours or overnight.
If eating the entire portion, remove the müesli from the refrigerator, stir, and garnish with toppings of your choice. If you want to divide it into two portions, plate and garnish one, and keep the second portion in the refrigerator, covered for up to 3 days. (Wait to add toppings until just prior to serving.)
