Ingredients
- Rolled oats
- Pears
- Ginger
- Cashews
- Water
- Maple syrup
Instructions
- Soak cashews in water for at least 4 hours or overnight to ensure smooth milk preparation. If short on time, use hot water and soak for 30 minutes.
- Drain and rinse the soaked cashews thoroughly under cold water.
- Prepare the cashew milk by blending soaked cashews with fresh water in a high-speed blender until completely smooth and creamy. Strain if desired for extra smoothness.
- Peel and core the fresh pears, then dice them into small, uniform cubes to ensure even distribution in the muesli.
- Grate fresh ginger using a microplane or fine grater to release its aromatic oils and maximize flavor intensity.
- In a mixing bowl, combine rolled oats with grated ginger, allowing the spice to infuse into the oats.
- Add diced pears to the oat mixture, gently folding to distribute evenly.
- Drizzle maple syrup over the muesli and mix lightly to create a subtle sweetness.
- Pour the freshly prepared cashew milk over the muesli just before serving to maintain optimal texture.
- For added texture, consider garnishing with extra pear slices or a sprinkle of additional grated ginger.
Tips
- Cashew Milk Magic: For the creamiest cashew milk, patience is key. Overnight soaking ensures the smoothest, most luxurious texture. If you're short on time, a 30-minute hot water soak works wonders.
- Ginger Game: Use fresh ginger and grate it finely to release maximum flavor. The microplane is your secret weapon for creating intense, aromatic ginger notes.
- Pear Perfection: Choose ripe but firm pears for the best texture and flavor. Dice them uniformly to ensure each bite is a perfect balance of fruit and oats.
- Texture Tip: Add the cashew milk just before serving to maintain the ideal consistency – creamy yet with a slight crunch from the oats.
- Customization Hack: Feel free to experiment with maple syrup quantities or add a sprinkle of cinnamon for an extra flavor dimension.
- Make-Ahead Brilliance: Prepare the cashew milk and chop ingredients the night before to streamline your morning routine.
