Ingredients

Serves 8

  • 200g porridge oats (not whole rolled oats)
  • 200ml semi-skimmed milk (or plant based alternative)
  • 1 tsp vanilla paste
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp ground ginger
  • Zest of one orange
  • 2 eggs
  • 20g Pure Via® 100% Xylitol
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil, melted
  • 1 tbsp almond butter – ideally crunchy
  • 1/2 tbsp mixed seeds to decorate
  • 2 handfuls of blueberries

Method

  • 1

    Preheat the oven to 180C.

  • 2

    Melt together the coconut oil and almond butter and stir well. Add in the spices, orange zest and vanilla.

  • 3

    In a separate bowl, combine the oats, milk and eggs until fully mixed.

  • 4

    Combine the oat mixture with the coconut oil and nut butter mix. Add in the blueberries and carefully mix, being careful not to squash the berries.

  • 5

    Line a non-stick baking tray with a little coconut oil and pour in the mixture. Finish by sprinkling the top with mixed seeds or chopped nuts for an extra crunch.

  • 6

    Bake at 180C for 15-20 minutes until golden brown and is firm to touch – the mixture should still be moist in the centre.

  • 7

    Leave to cool and then cut into 8 pieces.

  • 8

    Place thinly sliced orange pieces on top to garnish.
