PB and J oats
I’m obsessed with anything PB and J. On a sandwich, on oats, on pancakes, on French toast, on its own. It just works.
You don’t have to make your own jam for this, but you can, so so easily in the microwave. It literally takes 5 minutes.
Recipe
THE OATS
However many oats you want
Double the liquid to oats: I recommend using 3/4 milk and 1/4 water (soy milk is my fave for oats)
Yogurt of choice (fruity ones would be good but I just used plain)
Plenty of crunchy peanut butter
RASPBERRY CHIA SEED JAM, makes enough for 2-3 servings;
1/2 cup frozen raspberries
1-2 tbsp sugar or syrup (add more to taste)
1 tbsp chia seeds
Method
Add everything for the jam to a microwave safe bowl, start with 1 tbsp sugar first and add more later if needed
Microwave for about 2 minutes, until the raspberries have melted
Leave to sit for 3-4 mins, it will thicken slightly.
Whilst your jam is resting, add your oats and milk/ water mix to a microwave safe bowl, with a pinch of salt.
Microwave at 600W for 2 minutes, take out and stir, then microwave again for 1 minute at 1000W.
Once your oats have reached your desired consistency take them out - you may need more liquid, or more cooking time in the microwave.
Top your oats with 1-2 tbsp yogurt 2 tsp chia seed jam, and 1 tbsp crunchy peanut butter
Notes + Variations:
If you want to make these even more filling, add 2 egg whites when your oats are almost cooked. Trust me.
Ps. swap out peanut butter for any nut butter, and switch up the berries/ fruit for the chia jam.
