Ingredients
-
80g rolled oats
- 200ml Kerry Kefir
-
1 tbsp chia seeds
-
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
-
pinch of sea salt
-
1 banana, sliced

1 tsp raw honey
Top Tips
- Make several jars at once for easy breakfasts throughout the week.
- Try different toppings such as fresh berries, chopped nuts, grated apple or nut butter to keep things interesting.
Method

- Stir well until all of the oats are coated and submerged in the kefir.
