Muesli (/ˈmjuːzli/ MEWZ-lee;[1][2] Swiss German: Müesli [ˈmyə̯slɪ], non-Swiss Standard German: Müsli [ˈmyːsli:] (listen))[3][note 1][note 2] is a cold oatmeal dish based on rolled oats and ingredients like grains, nuts, seeds and fresh or dried fruits. This mix may be combined with one or more liquids like water, milk, plant milks, yogurt, or fruit juice and left for a time to soften the oats before being consumed.[4]Developed around 1900 by Swiss physician Maximilian Bircher-Benner for patients in his hospital,[5] it is now eaten as a standard breakfast dish, and also in Switzerland as a supper called Birchermüesli complet: muesli with Café complet (milk coffee, accompanied with bread, butter, and jam. (Butterbrot)).[4][6]
