The ultimate make-ahead breakfast — perfect for those mornings when you're running late (or just plain on the run). Packed with oats, yogurt, milk, nuts, and fruit, it'll keep you and baby fueled up through the busiest morning (and aren't all your mornings like that?). Vary the fruit, yogurt, and nuts and you'll never get bored.
Ingredients
- ½ cup old-fashioned oats
- ½ cup vanilla yogurt
- 3 dried apricots, chopped
- ¼ cup raisins or chopped dried apple
- ½ cup calcium-fortified milk
- Fresh fruit of your choice (such as berries, sliced apple or pear, sliced bananas, chopped peaches, papaya, or mango, etc.)
- 2 Tbsp chopped walnuts, almonds, or pecans
Instructions
- In small serving bowl (or resealable container, if making ahead), combine oats, yogurt, apricots, and raisins.
- To serve, pour milk over mixture, top with fruit and nuts.
Make Ahead: Make-ahead muesli (besides being convenient) is definitely on the soft side. If you like a little more crunch (and you have the time), combine the first four ingredients a day ahead and refrigerate, tightly covered. Add the milk and fruit just before serving.
