Breakfast Roulette

I fancied something different for my breakfasts this week. I usually have a yoghurt with grape nuts for breakfast when I’m at work. But as the weather is turning colder I wanted something that I coukd eat hot but was still within the SW rules.

Yesterday I baked some versions of Baked Oats. This consists of 40g of oats, 100g yoghurt, 1 egg, a teaspoon of baking powder and then whatever filling you fancy. Could be anything from apple sauce, Nutella, jam, mincemeat, whatever you fancy really. The interesting thing is you could eat these bakes for breakfast or even as a hot dessert, maybe with some cream, ice cream or custard if you’re feeling extravagant.

I made 3 lots as I’ll be in the office 3 days this week. I put Biscoff spread in one, but didn’t have enough for more, so raspberry jam went in the other 2.

After they’d baked for 40 minutes and cooled down, I covered them with cling film and put them in the fridge. The trouble was by then I couldn’t remember which one was which.

I grabbed one on my way out this morning. At a time I decided it was breakfast time I warmed it through in the microwave for 4 minutes. I still couldn’t tell which one I’d grabbed.

It was only as I plunged my spoon in that I discovered it was one of the jam ones. That means tomorrow there’s a fifty-fifty chance of Biscoff.

Rather sad that it’s quite a fun game to play.
