Growing up, this is what I thought muesli was. I couldn't understand the stuff in boxes.

Oats
Juice (apple, orange, cranberry, whatever)
1 tub of yogurt (about 500g)
3-5 apples
Raisins, sultanas, dried cranberries, whatever dried fruit you like
Nuts, whatever kind you like, but plain
Honey


This is one of those recipes you make to the limits of your ingredients. The more apples you have, the more you put in, so mine tends to range between 3 and 6.


Put a good few handfuls of oats in the bottom of a mixing bowl. Cover with juice, and let them soak it up a bit while you grate the apples. Add the grated apples, yogurt, dried fruit and nuts. If you're using sharp apples, Granny Smiths or whatever, or your yogurt is very sharp, you can add some honey to taste.

Leave overnight so the dried fruit can get all soft and plump.

It's really good, this one. Mess about with the proportions, add more oats if you want it thicker, add fresh fruit if you have some to hand. Keeps for about a week, but actually lasts for maybe a day or two.
