Summer Berry & Macadamia Bircher
Breakfast time! This recipe is for my summer berry & macadamia bircher muesli - perfect for porridge lovers who want to shake things up a little bit with a fresher start to the day. Still starting with a base of oats, except instead of cooking the oats, they are soaked in a mixture of milk, apple juice and yoghurt, which results in a cool, creamy texture that has a little bit of bite. The yoghurt and milk are a great way to get dairy into your day, and leaves lots of room for experimentation! I used plain Greek yoghurt, but why not try your favourite flavoured yoghurt, and switch the apple juice for orange?
To add some extra dimension to this muesli, I stirred through dried blueberries and chopped macadamias, then scattered on top some fresh blueberries, raspberries, macadamias and a little drizzle of runny honey. This is the perfect dish for those wanting to meal prep as well, as you can prepare this in bulk and flavour it to your cravings each day - it is an incredibly versatile base!
