Low-Fat Bircher Muesli
- 1/3 cup wheat germ
- 1 1/2 cups quick-cooking rolled oats
- 1/2 cup currants or 1/2 cup raisins
- 1/4 cup dried apricot, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup dried cranberries, chopped
- 1/4 1/4 cup brown sugar or 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- Combine all ingredients together and store in an air tight container.
- For breakfast combine 1/4 cup of the muesli mix with 1/4 cup of water and let soak for 30 minutes. Serve with 1 cup of yogurt and chopped fruit. Diced apples strawberries, bananas and blueberries all work well.
- 9/14 update: After reading the reviewer comments, I'm changing the directions to a 1:1 ratio of muesli and water. While the 2:1 worked well for me, my oatmeal is an organic super grainy type that may not represent the typical grain. Thank you Paula and Amis for the helpful feedback.
