Overnight oats with raspberries

May 18, 2017 | Breakfast / Brunch | 0 comments

Overnight oats are a great morning time saver and always seem to be a hit with fussy children. By soaking the oats overnight you break down the phytic acid and make them much easier to digest. Soaking also releases the natural sugars which makes this recipe taste lovely and sweet without the need for a sweetener. The raspberries add antioxidants, vitamin C and manganese.

  • 45g oats
  • 80g plain yogurt
