Very on trend, this energy fuelled breakfast packed with lots of natural fibres will definitely keep mum going until lunchtime. Take some of the hassle out and do the prep work the night before. Why not mix it up and use her favourite fruit instead; apples, peaches and nectarines all work well instead of pears.
Preparation time: 10 minutes, plus overnight soaking
Cooking time: none
Serves: 4
Ingredients
225g (8oz) White’s Jumbo Organic Porridge Oats
100ml (31/2fl oz) apple juice
3 ripe red skinned ripe pears
225ml (8fl oz) low fat natural yoghurt
2 tbsp. agave nectar
1 lemon-finely grated zest
50g (2oz) blueberries
2 tbsp. flaked almonds, toasted
Method
- In a large bowl mix together the oats, apple juice and 300ml (1/2pint) cold water. Cover and chill overnight.
- The next day, quarter, core and coarsely grate 2 of the pears and stir into the oat mixture with the yoghurt, agave nectar and lemon zest. Divide between 4 serving bowls.
- Quarter, core and slice the remaining pear and arrange over the top of the oat mixture. Scatter over the blueberries and flaked almonds and drizzle with extra agave nectar if liked.
Cook’s tip
The leftovers can easily be made up into little portable jars for you and mum to take to school and work – simply make up and spoon into a screw topped jam jar or small Kilner jar. Scatter over your fresh fruit, nuts seeds, granola etc. Seal and you’re good to go!
