Bircher muesli with chia seeds
Bircher muesli is a Swis invention from the turn of the last century. It consists of rolled oats, apple, milk and other ingredients to shake it up – we’ve used chia seeds, yogurt and some extra fruit. This is best when it’s left to soak overnight, so you’ll have a healthy, fuss-free breakfast ready to go in the morning
Blueberry breakfast muffins
Blueberry breakfast muffins might seem like an indulgence, but they don’t have to be. A few little tweaks like using flaxseed and yogurt bring these in under 200 calories. We have plenty more muffin recipes here

Delicious fresh baked treat. Make a dough like a Danish pastry and dot with fresh apricots, sprinkle with cinnamon sugar before cooking. Best eaten warm
Energy balls
We’re seeing these little balls of energy everywhere, they are great to eat before exercise, or when you feel as if you are flagging, as the simple sugars in the fruits will give you instant energy, and the nuts, nut butters or oats will give you a slow release of energy. We’ve made three flavours but you can create your own using the same idea. Chill until needed. They will keep for 5 days
Muesli loaf
This recipe for muesli loaf makes a dense, nutty loaf a little like soda bread. Packed with oats, coconut, nuts and fruit, we think it’s great for breakfast

A healthy on-the-go breakfast or anytime snack, these breakfast bars use dates and nut butter to hold together and provide a real energy boost. You can add a sprinkling of chia, flax or other seeds too
