About

I’m a creature of habit and this is pretty much my regular daily breakfast – bar the occasional bowl of porridge or granola. To avoid boredom and complacency, however, I do like to vary the fresh fruit and mix up the blend of grains, nuts and seeds. The day seems almost incomplete without this daily ritual.

Method

Put the oats in a bowl with the flaxseeds, hemp seeds, if using, nuts, seeds, dried fruit and fresh fruit. Pour over enough milk to cover and add a few spoonfuls of yogurt, if you like.
You could make a large batch of the grain, nut, seed and dried fruit mixture, then store it in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
