Ingredients
- 1 quantity of hot oats (base recipe)
- 2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ cup smooth ricotta
- 1 small banana, sliced
- 1 tablespoon pepitas
Method
Step 1
Cook hot oats following method in base recipe.
Step 2
Meanwhile, heat a medium non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add blueberries, maple syrup and vanilla. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, shaking pan occasionally until berries are soft and syrupy.
Step 3
To serve, divide oats between 2 bowls. Top with ricotta and banana. Spoon over warm blueberry mixture. Sprinkle with pepitas.
Tips
- Frozen blueberries are a cheaper option when fresh blueberries aren’t in season.
- Use honey or brown sugar in place of maple syrup, if preferred
