Notes
If you prefer your Bircher muesli a bit sweeter, consider adding a drizzle of honey or maple syrup.
Bircher muesli can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Customize your muesli by adding different fruits like banana slices, kiwi, or even passionfruit.
Chia seeds or flaxseeds can be added for an extra boost of fiber and omega-3s. A dollop of yogurt on top can add creaminess to your Bircher muesli.
Consider pairing your muesli with a hot beverage like tea or a latte.
If serving for brunch, a side of fresh fruit salad complements the muesli beautifully.
