Shop-bought muesli is often full of sugar. The homemade version comes together in five minutes, and you put in whatever you like. Oats, seeds, plain yoghurt and fresh fruit make a balanced breakfast rich in fibre and protein, and you can mix it the night before too.
Roughly chop the walnuts and almonds. If you like it crunchier, toast the oats with the seeds in a dry pan over medium heat for 3-4 minutes until fragrant, then let them cool.
Wash the fruit. Grate the apple or pear, or cut it into small cubes.
Put the yoghurt in a bowl and stir in the oats and half of the nuts and seeds.
Scatter over the fruit and the remaining nuts and seeds, and drizzle with honey if you like. If you prefer it creamier, mix it the evening before and leave it in the fridge until morning.

Tips
If you soak the oats in yoghurt overnight, they turn creamy by morning, like bircher muesli. If you like it crunchy, mix it just before eating.
Toast the seeds in a dry pan over medium heat for 3-4 minutes. You get a much richer flavour, and they stay crunchy for longer.
Do not buy fruit-flavoured yoghurt. Let fresh fruit and a spoonful of honey do the sweetening of plain yoghurt.
Frequently asked questions
How long can it be stored ahead?
The dry muesli base (oats and seeds) keeps 2-3 weeks in an airtight box. Once mixed with yoghurt, it keeps for 1 day at most in the fridge.
Can it be made dairy-free or gluten-free?
Plant-based yoghurt works instead of yoghurt, and buckwheat, millet or quinoa flakes instead of oats. For gluten-free, choose certified gluten-free oats.
