• 3⁄4 cup quick oats
• 3⁄4 cup unsweetened apple juice

Notes
Switch it up: Instead of the nuts (or in addition to—there are no rules), swirl in a big spoonful of almond butter or plain Balkan-style yogurt after the muesli soaks.
In this recipe, we’ve paired it with 100 g of 0% M.F. sweetened Greek yogurt.
