Overnight Flax & Chia Oats with Banana, Peanut Butter, Cinnamon & Toasted Seeds
Overnight oats are a wonderful breakfast to help the transition from warming bowls of winter porridge to lighter fruit & yoghurt pots. It is super flexible, allowing you to include your favourite flavours which have time to infuse overnight and it is ready to grab and go immediately in the morning. A win-win I'd say. For me, banana and peanut butter can never disappoint but you have full licence to play around with your go-tos. I always include chia and flax seeds for their powerful nutritional profile but, again, this is completely optional!
