Prep time

Ingredients

  • Milk: milk, to serve (optional)
  • Butternut Squash: large chunk butternut squash, peeled and coarsely grated (approx 320g grated weight)
  • Ground Cinnamon: 2 tsp ground cinnamon, plus a sprinkling to serve
  • Bio Yogurt: 2 x 150ml pots bio yogurt
  • Raisins: 80g raisins
  • Porridge Oats: 120g porridge oats
  • Walnuts: 25g walnuts roughly broken

Directions

  1. Tip the oats, raisins and cinnamon into a large bowl and pour over 1 litre cold water. Cover the bowl and leave to soak overnight.
  2. The next morning, tip the contents into a large saucepan and stir in the grated squash. Cook for about 8-10 mins over a medium heat, stirring frequently, until the oats are cooked and the squash is soft. Add a little more water if it's too thick.
  3. Put half of the mixture in the fridge for the next day. Spoon the remainder into bowls, top each portion with 1 pot yogurt and half the nuts. Dust with cinnamon, then serve with a splash of milk.
