Prep Time 7 minutes
Cook Time 3 minutes
Total Time 10 minutes

Equipment

  • lidded containers or bowls
  • Spoon

Ingredients

  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup milk or plant milk plus more as needed
  • 1/3 cup dried banana chips roughly chopped
  • 1/4 cup toasted almonds chopped
  • 1 tbsp chia seeds optional for thickness
  • 2 tsp honey or maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 pinch salt

Instructions

  • Add oats, chia seeds (if using), cinnamon, and salt to a lidded container or bowl.
  • Stir in chopped banana chips and half the almonds.
  • Pour in milk, vanilla, and honey. Mix well so all oats are moistened.
  • Cover and let sit for at least 5 minutes (or overnight in a cooler) until thickened. Stir again and add more milk for a looser texture if desired.
  • Top with remaining almonds and a few extra banana chips. Enjoy chilled or at room temperature.

Notes

Pack dry ingredients together and add milk at camp. Muesli can soak overnight in a cooler for extra softness or be eaten after a short rest if pressed for time. Perfect for no-flame mornings or hot weather.
