Method

  1. Soak together all the ingredients for the bowl and stir well.
  2. Leave to soak for a few hours or overnight (you can also just soak for an hour but the longer the better).
  3. When serving in the morning, you might need to add a little more milk and do taste for sweetness.
  4. If you love a little extra crunch in the muesli, stir in some broken walnuts.
