Recipe: Fruit and Oat Muesli
Makes 6 servings
- 1 1/4 cups quick-cooking oats
- 2/3 cup reduced-fat (2%) milk
- 2/3 cup plain low-fat yogurt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2/3 cup fresh orange juice
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 1/2 cups grated peeled red-skinned apples (about 2 medium)
- 1 cup chopped raw almonds
- 3 cups chopped fresh fruit (such as apples, pears, and peeled oranges)
Mix first 4 ingredients in large bowl. Let stand 5 minutes to soften oats.
Whisk orange juice and honey in medium bowl. Stir in grated apples and almonds, then 3 cups chopped fruit.
Stir fruit mixture into oat mixture. DO AHEAD: Can be made 8 hours ahead. Cover; chill. Spoon into bowls.
I guess you have to make ahead anyway to let the oats soak right? Sounds like a very healthy and tasty breakfast recipe. For a more traditional egg sandwich that is portable and low cal check out my post. Good Blog. W.C.C.
