• 250ml unsweetened almond milk
• 1 small apple
• 1 tbsp linseed
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 100g frozen mixed berries

Method

You’ll need: mixing bowl · grater

1. Finely grate the apple and mix it with the lemon juice straight away so it stays pale and fresh.
2. Stir the oats and freshly ground linseed into the grated apple in a bowl.
3. Add the almond milk and mix thoroughly until evenly combined.
4. Cover and leave to soak in the fridge for several hours or overnight.
5. Let the mixed berries thaw separately in the fridge so they release their juice and stay cold.
6. Before serving, give the Bircher muesli another stir, divide between bowls and top with the mixed berries.
