Ingredients

  • ½ cup Muesli
  • 1 cup vanilla greek yogurt or dairy-free alternative
  • 2 tablespoon milk or dairy-free alternative
  • ¼ cup whole fresh cranberries
  • ¼ cup roasted chestnuts chopped
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar

Instructions

  • Combine all ingredients and split evenly among two glass jars
  • Refrigerate overnight
  • Top with more fresh cranberries and enjoy

Notes

Pro Tip: Wait to add toppings like granola, peanut butter, or maple syrup until before serving. This way, they don't get soggy.
Letting your bircher muesli sit overnight yields the best results but your oat mixture only needs a few hours to become soft. If you're in a time crunch, you can let them soak for 1-3 hours.
How to store
Storing - Store in mason jar or airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Stir and add toppings before eating.
Freezing - I would not recommend freezing homemade muesli as the texture of the oats will change.
