There are mornings when I know I won’t have time to stand around cooking.
On those days, I tend to make something the night before that I’ll actually want to eat when I wake up. Not something overly worthy or bland, but something that feels like a proper breakfast.
This one usually starts with yoghurt and oats.
I mix everything together in a jar the night before, nothing complicated, just a few ingredients that work well together. It takes a couple of minutes, then it goes straight into the fridge.
By morning, it’s ready.
The oats soften, the flavours come together and it feels like something that’s been properly made rather than thrown together in a rush.
It’s cold, creamy and filling enough to carry me through the morning without needing anything else.
