Coconut-Orange Muesli

Ingredients

2 cups rolled oats

1/2 cup coconut milk (more as needed)

1 orange, juiced and zested to yield about 1/4 teaspoon of the zest (about half the orange)

2 teaspoons honey (optional)

Pinch of salt

1 apple, grated

1/2 cup dried cherries or other fruit

1/2 cup skin-on almonds, toasted and coarsely chopped

1/4 cup dried coconut chips, toasted (optional)

Fresh fruit, for serving (optional)

Directions

  1. In a medium sized bowl, combine oats, coconut milk, orange juice and zest, honey if using, salt, grated apple, and cherries and stir to combine. If the mixture seems dry, stir in a little more coconut milk.

  2. Allow to soften in the refrigerator for at least 1 1/2 hours or up to 3 days. Serve muesli with a sprinkling of toasted chopped almonds and coconut, and fresh fruit if you like.

Serves 3 to 4
