Bircher Muesli with Pear, Coconut & Chia Seeds (Breakfast)
Bircher muesli was first developed by a Swiss physician, Maximilian Bircher-Benner as part of the therapy he prescribed for his patients. Often called simply ‘overnight oats’ Bircher muesli is an ideal breakfast food – it can be assembled the night before, left in the fridge overnight and enjoyed in the morning – there is no cooking required.

The version below calls for pears and coconut, but alternative combinations are provided in the notes.
