Bircher muesli

This has to be one of the simplest breakfasts to make at home rather than buy at the cafe: bircher muesli. Top with toasted almonds, grated apple and a drizzle of honey, berries, poached pears, yoghurt, seeds or shaved coconut. So many options – it just requires some preparation the night before. Enjoy.
