The servings are very large. This bircher was very citrussy and not really to our taste. Tasted better when it was freshly made.

I used 100ml orange juice and 70ml water to reduce the sugar, 50g of oats, A good 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, some raisins and I finely chopped one apple. I gave it a stir, left it overnight and warmed in the morning. Served to very small portions so next time I will double quantities for 3 people. It is a bit like porridge when warmed but quicker than microwaved porridge and healthier. The raisins are juicy and plump when soaked and add a nice sweetness.

Use half water instead of just apple juice to reduce the sugar and make it lighter.
