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:
- Pour milk, or a milk alternative over your whole, dry oats.
- Mix in some grated Washington Apples.
- Add chia or flaxseed for extra nutrients and texture.
- 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.
