Serves: Two
Ingredients:
- 100 grams oats
- 2 tablespoons white chia seeds
- 1 tablespoon pumpkin seeds
- 2 tablespoons of shaved coconut
- 350 mils milk, of your choice (I use almond or coconut)
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- A dash of all-natural vanilla extract
- A squeeze of lemon juice
- 2 ripe pears
- 1 pinch of ground cinnamon
- A small handful of dried cranberries
Method:
1. The night before, put the oats, chia seeds, coconut and pumpkin seeds into a bowl or container, pour over the milk, and add the maple syrup, vanilla and lemon juice.
2. Mix well, then cover and pop into the fridge overnight.
3. In the morning, chop the pears into little chunks, sprinkle over the cinnamon and add the cranberries and either layer them up with the oats and seeds in a glass or bowl, or just run out of the door with everything in a little container.
