Bircher muesli with pears, maple syrup and cinnamon recipe

A hearty bowl of oats packed with scrumptious pears, mixed fruit and cinnamon. This easy breakfast recipe can be made in advance to save time and effort and is wonderfully fragrant - it's sure to brighten up any morning.

In a small bowl or lidded container, combine the oats, almond milk and apple juice; mix well. Cover and leave to soak overnight (or see tip, below) in the fridge.

Divide the muesli into bowls and top with the pear slices, dried fruit and pecans. Drizzle each bowl with maple syrup and dust with cinnamon. Serve immediately. 

Tip: Whip up a big batch of bircher muesli and store in the fridge for up to 3 days. Add the topping just before serving.
