Mealtimes Breakfast & Brunch Healthy Cereal Recipes Healthy Granola & Muesli Recipes Apple-Cinnamon Muesli 5.0 (3) 3 Reviews Muesli, a Swiss breakfast cereal, is soaked in liquid overnight, softening the oats, nuts, seeds and dried fruits. This version is chock-full of apples from the applesauce, apple juice and fresh apple topping, with a little cinnamon to warm the flavor. We use a combination of yogurt and almond milk for the base, but any dairy or nondairy milk or yogurt will work well.
