How to make a muesli breakfast bowl
- Add the cereal. Add the HTWO muesli or HTWO oats to a bowl.
- Add milk or yogurt. Pour over milk or spoon in yogurt. Stir so the cereal is evenly coated.
- Add fruit. Top with sliced banana or other seasonal fruit.
- Add toppings. Add nuts or seeds if desired. Sweeten lightly with honey only if needed.
- Serve or chill. Serve immediately for a firmer texture, or cover and refrigerate for 2–8 hours for a softer, overnight-style bowl.
Easy ways to customise your muesli bowl
- More crunch: Add the cereal just before eating if soaking overnight.
- Fruit-forward: Use apple, banana, papaya, berries or other seasonal fruit.
- Less added sweetness: Rely on ripe fruit and skip honey.
- Warm breakfast bowl: Heat milk separately and pour over oats. Do not microwave sealed containers.
- Thicker texture: Use plain yogurt instead of milk.

Frequently asked questions
Can I prepare muesli the night before?
Yes. Mix it with milk or yogurt, cover and refrigerate. Add crunchy toppings just before serving.
Is muesli better with milk or yogurt?
Both work. Milk makes a looser bowl, while yogurt creates a thicker, tangier result. Your choice changes the flavour and nutritional content of the meal.
Can I use oats instead of muesli?
Yes. Plain oats are a useful base, although their ingredients and texture differ from a muesli blend.
Can I add honey to muesli?
Yes. Honey is optional, so taste the bowl first and add a small amount only if needed. Never give honey to a child under 12 months.
