Gluten-free Bircher Muesli with Quinoa
Prep 5 minutes
Total 5 minutes
Makes 1 serve

Ingredients
 

  • 90g / ½ cup cooked quinoa approx. 45g/¼ cup uncooked quinoa, see notes
  • 2-3 tbsp yoghurt or a bit of milk dairy-free, if needed
  • 1 small pear or apple grated or chopped
  • a handful of nuts chopped or meal, I used almonds
  • a handful dried fruit chopped, I used dates
  • 1-2 tbsp apple sauce or nut butter optional

Instructions
 

  • Add a few spoonfuls of yoghurt (dairy-free, if needed) and a few spoonfuls of cooked quinoa to a bowl and mix. You can add some water or (plant-based) milk, if the yoghurt is too firm.
  • Add fruit, nuts and dried fruit. I also like adding homemade apple sauce as well for more flavour!
  • Mix everything together and DONE!

Notes

  • I usually cook a bigger batch, so 1 cup / 190g uncooked quinoa equals about 2 cups / 270g (plus a bit more) cooked quinoa. This, for me, is enough for 4-5 meals. Learn how to prepare quinoa the right way, above, in the article!
  • Using milk or water will make your Bircher a bit runnier than with yoghurt. To thicken it a bit, you could add some apple sauce or nut butter (or both).
  • Or alternatively, you can soak your muesli over night. The (cooked) quinoa will absorb a little bit of the liquid, making it not as runny.
