Serves 1

Ingredients:

• 50g oats

• 1 apple, grated

• 1 tbsp chia seeds

• 100ml plant-based milk

• 1 x 20ml JIN JIN - for the extra goodness

• To serve: fresh berries, coconut yogurt, nut butter, granola, cacao nibs, etc.
  

Method:

1. Combine Ingredients: In a bowl, add the oats, grated apple, chia seeds, plant-based milk, and JIN JIN. Give it a good stir for a couple of minutes, ensuring all ingredients are well combined.

2. Soak and Chill: Once mixed, place the bowl in the refrigerator for 30-60 minutes. During this time, the oats will soak up the liquid, and the mixture will thicken, resulting in a creamy texture.

3. Serve and Enjoy: Once the oats have soaked and reached your desired consistency, it's time to indulge! Serve the Bircher oats with mashed raspberries, a dollop of nut butter, a spoonful of coconut yogurt, a sprinkle of granola, some cacao nibs for a touch of crunch, and a drizzle of maple or fruit syrup for sweetness. Feel free to get creative with your toppings and tailor them to your taste preferences.

4. Customise: One of the great things about this recipe is its versatility. Don't hesitate to experiment with different fruits, nuts, seeds, or sweeteners to create your perfect bowl of Bircher oats. Whether you prefer strawberries, almonds, pumpkin seeds, or honey, the options are endless!
