Ingredients

4 portions
  • 200gPorridge oats
  • 500mlOat milk
  • 2 tbspChia seeds
  • 2 tbspMaple syrup
  • 1 tspGround cinnamon
  • 300gFrozen mixed berries

Plus salt, pepper and water.

Method

  1. 1

    Stir the oats, chia, cinnamon and a pinch of salt together in a large bowl. Pour in the oat milk and maple syrup and mix well.

  2. 2

    Leave for 2 minutes, then stir again so the chia does not sink into a clump. Divide between four jars or tubs and level the tops.

  3. 3

    Tip the frozen berries over the top, straight from the bag. Lids on and into the fridge. By morning they will have thawed into a jammy layer.

On the day

Eat cold, straight from the jar. If it has set too thick, stir in a splash of oat milk.

Cook’s tip

Taste the mix before it goes into the jars. Oat milks vary a lot in sweetness, so you may want less maple.
