Serving suggestions

Try with a variety of fruit – strawberries, raspberries, pears or peaches (tinned or fresh) all work well. Use fruit yoghurt instead of milk for a thicker drink.

"Oats are one of nature’s most nutritious whole grains and are rich in natural fibre. They are fantastic for a healthy bowel and are also slowly digested, which means they keep you going for longer. Oats are an ideal food for people with diabetes as they help to keep blood sugar levels steady."
