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)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, combine the rolled oats and milk. Mix well and let it sit for about 5 minutes to soften the oats.

Step 2

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.

Step 3

Add the grated apple, plain yogurt, and honey to the bowl with the soaked oats. Stir until all ingredients are well combined.

Step 4

If using raisins or dried cranberries, gently fold them into the mixture at this stage.

Step 5

Divide the mixture into two bowls or jars for serving.

Step 6

Top each serving with a handful of chopped nuts and the fresh fruit of your choice (e.g., sliced bananas, berries, or grapes).

Step 7

Serve immediately for a fresh and delicious breakfast, or cover and refrigerate for up to 12 hours for an even creamier texture.
