DIRECTIONS
Place the oats and wheat germ in a bowl and add the juice. Add enough water so the oats are just covered. Allow to soak overnight, preferably.
In the morning, place in a small saucepan and heat until just warm (you can skip this process and serve cold too).
Add the almonds, currants, bran straws and grated apple. Mix well and serve in bowls topped with the yogurt and peaches.
