Summer fruit bircher muesli with banana and berries

Ingredients

  • 1⁄2 cup raw (natural) rolled oats
  • 1 tbsp brown rice flakes
  • juice of 1⁄2 an orange
  • 20ml boiling water, or as needed
  • freshly grated nutmeg, to taste
  • 35g blueberries
  • 65g strawberries, hulled and quartered or sliced
  • 200ml lactose-free natural or vanilla yoghurt
  • 1⁄2 tsp pure maple syrup
  • 1⁄2 tbsp raw cashews, roasted
  • 1⁄4 small banana, sliced or diced

Method

  • Combine the oats, brown rice flakes and orange juice in a bowl. Add enough boiling water to ensure the mixture is almost covered in liquid, then grate over a little nutmeg to taste. Cover with plastic film and refrigerate for a minimum of two hours or overnight, if time permits.
  • Just before serving, stir in the blueberries and half of the strawberries, the yoghurt and maple syrup.
  • Add the bircher muesli to a bowl and top evenly with the cashews, banana and remaining strawberries. Serve with extra grated nutmeg, if desired.

If you are sensitive to FODMAPS, swap cashews for low-FODMAP nuts (brazil/macadamia/pecan/hazelnuts).
