Fruity Breakfast Zoats

Zoats, or zucchini oats, are quickly becoming one of my go-to breakfasts, and although it sounds a little strange, don't knock it til you've tried it. Zoats are basically grated zucchini cooked with oats and milk in a porridge. Adding the zucchini adds fibre, nutrients and volume to the porridge, and you really can't taste the courgette. I've topped this with banana slices, almond butter and berry and apple compote. which is just some 1/2 cup frozen summer fruits and one apple finely diced microwaved for around 5 minutes, until the apple goes soft.



Ingredients

1/2 - 1 cup of grated zucchini
40g oats
1 - 1 1/2 cups of almond milk (or another milk of your choice)
1 tsp maple syrup
1 tsp cinnamon

Method

1. Combine ingredients in a large bowl, stirring well, and microwave for 5 minutes, stirring every sixty seconds. It really is that easy!
