Cuisine English
Servings 1 serving

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup oats soaked overnight in water and apple cider vinegar to reduce phytic acid for better digestion
  • 1 cup mixed berry compote frozen berries, gently heated in a pan with a splash of water, add ½ lemon juice once cooled for added acidity and vitamin C
  • 1 heaped tablespoon hulled hemp seeds
  • 200 ml natural yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds soaked in water for 30 minutes to increase hydration and fibre
  • Small handful almonds
  • 2 Brazil nuts

Instructions
 

Prepare the Oats

  • The night before, soak 1 cup of oats in a bowl with water and a splash of apple cider vinegar. This process helps break down the phytic acid in the oats, making them easier to digest and absorb nutrients. Cover and let it sit overnight in the fridge.

Make the Berry Compote

  • In a small pan, heat 1 cup of mixed frozen berries with a splash of water over low heat until the berries soften and break down into a lovely compote. Let it cool slightly and then add the juice of half a lemon for a fresh, tangy twist and an extra boost of vitamin C.

Soak the Chia Seeds

  • In a small bowl, soak 2 tablespoons of chia seeds in water for 30 minutes. Chia seeds are an excellent source of soluble fibre and omega-3 fatty acids, and they absorb water, which helps keep you feeling full longer.

Assemble the Bowl

  • In the morning, take the soaked oats and give them a quick stir. Add 200ml of natural yogurt for a creamy texture and probiotics for gut health.
  • Stir in the soaked chia seeds into the mixed berry compote.
  • Sprinkle with hemp seeds, and top with a spoonful of the berry compote, almonds, and 2 Brazil nuts for crunch and a healthy dose of selenium.

Notes

Add a drizzle of honey or maple syrup for a little extra sweetness
