Ingredients
Dry ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/4 cup desiccated coconut
- a pinch of salt
- 1 Tbsp hemp or flax seeds
- 1 Tbsp chia seeds
- 1 Tbsp sunflower kernels
- 1 Tbsp pepitas
- 3-4 Tbsp diced walnuts
- 3-4 Tbsp slivered or chopped almonds
Wet ingredients
- 1/2 cup coconut yoghurt
- 1/2 cup plant milk (soy or coconut)
- 1 Tbsp maple syrup or honey
- 1/2 - 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional - if using natural yoghurt)
- 1 apple, cored and grated
- 1 tsp lemon juice (optional - to stop the apple from browning)
Instructions
- Add dry ingredients to a mixing bowl or quarter the measurements for individual serves.
- Grate the apple, add lemon juice if desired.
- Combine wet ingredients, add apple.
- Combine dry and wet or portion out and combine later.
- Leave over night and up to a few days in the fridge.
- Serve with added milk or yoghurt if desired, fresh berries, banana slices, nut butters etc.
Notes
- original recipe used all yoghurt, no plant milk which was a bit thick for me, and expensive.
- Original recipe added 3 Tbsp or 1/4 cup dried cranberries or other fruits (my husband prefers it without - nuts or nothing!)
- We make up the dry mix in little jars and only assemble the combined form when we are ready due to a forever insufficient amount of fridge space.
- Husband encountered bircher in the wild for the first time on a cruise ship around the coast of New Zealand and is now quite the fan.
