The addition of fresh fruit adds a natural sweetness and lovely texture to the oats, while a touch of lemon juice keeps the flavours bright and balanced. It is a wholesome vegetarian breakfast that feels both nostalgic and energising, making it a reliable staple for busy weekday mornings or a slow weekend brunch.

Quick to prepare using simple store-cupboard ingredients, this porridge is a fantastic way to include more fibre and fruit in your diet. While delicious on its own, you can easily customise your bowl with a handful of toasted walnuts, a dusting of cinnamon, or a generous swirl of honey for extra indulgence.
