TIPS
- For Chill: Use cold oat milk or include a couple of ice cubes for a refreshing chill.
- Avoid Lumps: First, blend oats with liquid to avoid lumps in the final bowl.
- For Tangy Flavour: Green apple adds tang and crunch; peel only if preferred.
- For Aroma: Sprinkle cinnamon on top, too, for added aroma and visual appeal.
VARIATIONS
- Vegan-friendly: Use a plant-based protein powder and oat milk.
- Extra fibre: Add 1 teaspoon of chia or flaxseed before blending.
- Fruit swap: Replace half the green apple with pear for sweetness variation.
- Higher protein: Add an extra tablespoon of Greek yoghurt or protein powder.
- Flavour twist: Stir in a splash of vanilla extract or a pinch of nutmeg.
PREPPING AND STORAGE
- Prepping: Chop apple and portion oats, cinnamon and protein powder into jars or bags ahead of time.
- Storage: Best eaten fresh. If needed, refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 12 hours. Stir before eating.
- Freezing: Blend and freeze the mixture in silicone moulds for up to one week; thaw overnight in the fridge and stir well to restore texture.
