Welcome to my Wednesday Food blog. This August, it’s all about Back to School. So today it’s breakfast :
Overnight Oatmeal Jars:
- 1/4 cup oats (old-fashioned)
- 1/3 cup milk
- 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon honey ( maple syrup)
- Measure out the main base ingredients into the bottom of each jar. I start with the dry ingredients (oats, chia seeds) then add the milk, yogurt and honey. You can line up a series of jars and knock out 6 or more at a time.
- Add the topping ingredients (such as cinnamon and applesauce or pumpkin and peanut butter) to the top of each jar. They will be very full.
- Carefully mix everything together very well.
- Put the lid on and store the oatmeal jars in the refrigerator for up to a week.
Milk: You can use any type of Milk.
Tou can top with whatever your kids like. Blueberry ,Strawberries, Applesauce, or Ba
Pancake Fruit Muffins

- 2 eggs
- 2 tbsp maple syrup , plus extra to serve
- handful of raspberries or blueberries, or a bit of each

- Oil a 12-hole muffin tin generously, using a pastry brush to make sure you get in all the corners and up the sides. Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas Mix the flour, baking powder and a pinch of salt in a bowl.
- STEP 2Melt the butter . Add the milk, then the eggs and maple syrup, whisk together, then pour into the dry ingredients and mix again to a smooth batter. Divide evenly between the holes of your tin.
- STEP 3 Top each muffin with a few berries or slices of banana. Bake for 20-25 mins until golden brown. Test if the muffins are cooked by pushing a skewer into the center of one. If it comes out clean, they’re ready. If not, continue cooking for a few more minutes. Once cooked, cool for 5 mins, then remove from the tin with a cutlery knife. Enjoy
