Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 100 g rolled oats
- 120 ml milk (or plant-based milk)
- 120 g plain yogurt
- 1 medium apple
- 2 tbsp honey (or maple syrup)
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 30 g chopped nuts (e.g., almonds, walnuts, or hazelnuts)
- 100 g fresh fruit (e.g., berries, banana, or grapes)
- 20 g raisins or dried cranberries (optional)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the rolled oats and milk. Mix well and let it sit for about 5 minutes to soften the oats.
While the oats soak, wash and grate the apple (with the skin on) using a coarse grater. Immediately stir in the lemon juice to prevent the apple from browning.
Add the grated apple, plain yogurt, and honey to the bowl with the soaked oats. Stir until all ingredients are well combined.
If using raisins or dried cranberries, gently fold them into the mixture at this stage.
Divide the mixture into two bowls or jars for serving.
Top each serving with a handful of chopped nuts and the fresh fruit of your choice (e.g., sliced bananas, berries, or grapes).
Serve immediately for a fresh and delicious breakfast, or cover and refrigerate for up to 12 hours for an even creamier texture.
