Apple and Cranberry Super Breakfast
"This fuss-free breakfast recipe with apples, oats and cranberries is super quick, it is very yummy and it looks pretty complicated but in reality it is the easiest thing to prep. I’m calling it a breakfast but realistically could easily be a healthy dessert if you wanted it to be or a snack that requires no prior preps but literally just mixing all those ingredients up and the result is this very simple yet sophisticated looking one."
NotesServe cold or warm with a dollop of ice cream, clotted cream or a good natural Greek style yoghurt. Of course you can replace the apples with a fruit that you love and this can be banana, apricots, pears, cherries or nectarines.
In terms of all the optional ingredients that I have mentioned in the ingredients list you can choose mix and match which ever you like but I would recommend if you use rum not to use the desiccated coconut or vanilla but just a tiny amount of cinnamon with a choice of apples or bananas not otherwise. I do love a rum flavour and this could be because my mum always used it quite a bit in her desserts especially pancakes or the apple ones.
