Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup gluten-free rolled oats
- 2 cups almond milk
- 1/4 cup chia seeds
- 1 apple, grated
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- Fresh fruits for topping
Instructions
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free rolled oats and chia seeds, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
- Pour the almond milk over the oat and chia seed mixture, stirring thoroughly to ensure all dry ingredients are well-coated and moistened.
- Grate the fresh apple using a box grater or food processor, catching all the apple pulp and juice.
- Add the grated apple directly into the oat mixture, stirring to incorporate completely.
- Drizzle honey or maple syrup over the mixture, gently folding to distribute the sweetener evenly.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to allow the oats and chia seeds to fully absorb the liquid and soften.
- Before serving, give the muesli a gentle stir to redistribute any settled ingredients.
- Divide the muesli between two serving bowls, and top with a variety of fresh fruits such as berries, sliced banana, or chopped nuts for added texture and flavor.
- Serve chilled and enjoy your nutritious gluten-free breakfast.
Tips
- Choose high-quality gluten-free rolled oats to ensure complete gluten-free preparation.
- For best results, prepare the muesli the night before to allow ingredients to fully absorb the liquid and develop rich flavors.
- Experiment with different milk alternatives like coconut milk or oat milk for varied taste profiles.
- Add a sprinkle of cinnamon or vanilla extract for extra flavor complexity.
- Use seasonal fruits for topping to keep your breakfast exciting and nutritionally diverse.
- If you prefer a thicker consistency, add extra chia seeds or reduce the almond milk slightly.
- Store prepared muesli in the refrigerator for up to 3 days for quick, grab-and-go breakfasts.
