What better breakfast is there than a warm bowl of grains, topped with fruit? It keeps you going a long while, provides you with energy and gently starts your digestion. Of course there are thousands ways of creating such a breakfast bowl. Here is a version I really like because it contains both fruits and vegetable, it is done in 5-10 minutes (depending on your morning condition) and it doesn’t need added sugar.
For one bowl you need:
- 50 g rolled oats
- 1 1/2 tbsp wheat bran
- 1 tbsp ground flaxseeds
- 1 medium carrot
- a small handful of raisins
- 150-200 ml oat milk (or any plant milk)
- 1/4 tsp cardamom
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
- 1 pinch of salt
- 1 apple
In a small saucepan combine oats, wheat bran, flaxseeds, raisins, spices and salt. Grate the carrot finely into the saucepan and add the oat milk. Bring to a boil, then let it simmer until the liquid is absorbed. Occasionally give it a stir. The carrot will give it a warm colour and a more exciting texture, the raisins add extra sweetness to it and the wheat bran and flaxseeds contain fibres.
Cut the apple into thin slices. Transfer the oatmeal to a bowl, pour a little more oat milk around and garnish with the apple.
That was quick.
Enjoy.
