🇨🇭 Switzerland recipe
Birchermuesli
Created around 1900 by Swiss physician Dr. Maximilian Bircher-Benner at his Zurich clinic as a health food for his patients, Birchermuesli is now enjoyed worldwide but rarely made according to the original recipe. The genuine version is not the dry granola of modern invention but a creamy, fresh preparation where oats are soaked overnight and combined with grated apple, lemon juice, condensed milk, and hazelnuts. It is light, nourishing, and refreshing.
