Smashed Cherries and Olive Oil Apricots on Bircher Muesli Recipe
Using grilled fruit in this bircher muesli recipe gives a new dimension to this creamy breakfast. You also get a touch of savory with the splash of olive oil, which contrasts with the sweet undertones of the apple juice.

1ripe apricot
¼cupplain Greek yogurt(50 grams)
Instructions
In a small bowl, mix together the Dorset Cereals Almonds & Honey Bircher Mix and apple juice. Cover and place in the refrigerator to soak overnight, or at least 30 minutes.
When the bircher is ready, prepare the toppings. Wash and pit the cherries. I did it simply by smashing the cherries with my fingers and removing the pit. Set aside. Slice the apricot into 6 pieces, and discard the stone. In a small fry pan, heat the olive oil on high heat. Once the oil is hot, add in the apricots, cut side down. Allow to fry for a few minutes, until the bottom of the apricots start to brown. Carefully flip each slice of apricot, and fry for a few minutes until the other side is browned. Remove from heat.
Stir the Greek yogurt through the bircher. Top with the smashed cherries and grilled apricots. Drizzle on the remaining oil from the fry pan.
