Harness the power of healthy fruits atop your daily bowl of oats this month

From sweet to savoury dishes, their sheer versatility, as well as health-protective nutrient profile, make oats a must in your pantry.

As a breakfast staple they are not only quick and easy to make, but they will also keep the whole family fuller for longer.

Apple and walnut goodness

As oats are mainly a carbohydrate — made up of 13% protein, 7.5% fat, and 79.5% carbohydrates — they are often a popular choice for breakfast. But if you’re not feeling the standard bowl of porridge, why not try a fruity overnight oat bowl?

Just follow these easy steps:

  1. Pour milk, or a milk alternative over your whole, dry oats.
  2. Mix in some grated Washington Apples.
  3. Add chia or flaxseed for extra nutrients and texture.
  4. Pop in the fridge for 3-4 hours or overnight.

You can top your bowl with fresh slices of USA apples — which bring an extra morning tang — the next day, as well as a small handful of your favourite nuts.

Not only does making the dish the night before save time in the morning, but the consistency also allows for a great option for brekkie on the go.

Nut butter goodness

A peanut butter porridge will do the trick if you need some extra protein in your punch.

It's a simple, easy recipe that you can make in the microwave or over the stove. Try topping with sliced banana and pumpkin seeds to add some variety.

Plus, it can be enjoyed for breakfast or supper, or as a healthier alternative to dessert.
