Equipment for overnight oats

I used

Mini Chopper/Food Processor to blend the strawberries. If you haven’t got one, just mush them with a fork.

3 small glasses with lids to store your overnight oats.

Ingredients

• 23 Strawberries
• 9 tbsp Oats
• 3 tsp Cocoa Powder
• 400 g Creme Fraiche
• 6 tbsp Maple Syrup

How to make overnight oats

• In a large bowl, add the creme fraiche. In your mini chopper/food processor, blend 20 strawberries and add to the cream and mix through.
• Add 1 tbsp of maple syrup and mix. Taste it and if you prefer it sweeter, add more.
• Get your glass tumblers ready and add 3 tablespoons of oats to each glass.
• Add a tsp of cocoa powder on top of the oats. Add the strawberry mixture to each glass but not too full at this stage. Mix each glass thoroughly and add more mixture. Add a swirl of maple syrup on top and decorate with a strawberry.
• Cover with a lid and place in the fridge overnight, and enjoy in the morning for breakfast!
