Breakfast of Champions

I've got to admit I've never been very good at remembering to eat breakfast however just lately it's something I'm starting to really enjoy.

This delicious breakfast can be prepared in advance and will certainly keep those hunger pangs at bay until lunch time. It's a delicious granola with super thick breakfast yoghurt swirled with blackberry compot.

Ingredients

1 Small Tub of Greek Yoghurt
1/2 Pint of Semi-Skimmed Milk
200g Blackberries
2 Tablespoons of Caster Sugar
4 Tablespoons of Water

250g Large Rolled Oats
4 Tablespoons of Honey
1 Tablespoon of Brown Sugar
1 Small Handful of Raisins

Method

Mix together the sugar, and honey in a saucepan until completely dissolved. Stir through the rolled oats.

Lay on a tray covered in baking parchment and place in a low oven for 15 minutes.

Empty and store in an air tight container and add the raisins in a cool dry place.

Separately mix the berries and caster sugar in a pan with the water until a soft set jam like consistency appears.

In an ice cream tub mix the yogurt and milk together and swirl in the blackberry compot.

Serve the granola and yoghurt together with a large coffee and the Sunday papers!


*top tip* For an extra indulgent treat use the granola as a crumble topping. Another great time is to freeze the yogurt/compot mix for a dreamy desert!
