Easy Overnight Oats

Who doesn't want a super simple yet incredibly satisfying breakfast on a cold winter morning?
I certainly do, which is why I am very happy with my discovery of overnight oats. A great thing about these is that you prepare the oats the night before, refrigerate and then all you have to do in the morning is add your preferred toppings, my favourites being banana and nut butter. Also this breakfast is the perfect healthy start to your day as oatmeal burns fat and is full of fibre to keep you full and satisfied until lunchtime.


Easy Overnight Oats Recipe:
1/2 cup of rolled oats
1/2 cup of almond milk (extra creamy texture) or water if you prefer
1tbsp Cacao powder( optional if you want a chocolatey version)

Method:
In a mason Jar or small bowl mix the oats and almond milk.
Refrigerate overnight
In the morning give the oats a good stir and either eat them cold or warm them in the microwave if you prefer.
Add a drizzle of honey
Add some nut butter
Top with fruit

Enjoy!!

The best breakfast experience | Black Milk Cereal Cafe

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. I agree with this saying which is why I have another breakfast inspired post on the blog. If you are a lover of cereal I think you will enjoy this place...

 Black Milk Cereal Dive is Manchester's very own cereal cafe situated in the Northern Quarter of Manchester in Affleck's Palace. I had enviously eyed their Instagram page for a while, with the incredible array of edible bowls and cereals to the vast amount of sugary toppings to curb any sweet tooth, I knew I had to go and experience it for myself and I was not disappointed.

I opted for Reese's puffs, chocolate Lucky Charms and Cookie Crisp, topped off with marshmallows, M&M's, white jazzles, all covered in salted caramel sauce, served with the cutest mini bottle of milk. The combination was delicious and of course I went for the edible chocolate bowl, however sadly I didn't manage to finish this. The actual cafe was a lot smaller than I imagined with only about 6 tables in the whole place, however this made the experience a lot more cosy and welcoming. The whole idea of a cereal cafe is such a great fun and novelty idea and with so many more yummy combinations to try I will definitely be making another visit.

Have you guys ever been to a cereal cafe? Would you fancy it?

My Go-To Breakfast

As a graduate there are definitely some perks, namely leisurely breakfasts which means I can spend more time making these yummy pancakes without having to rush out the door.

With only two ingredients, these pancakes are not only delicious but also simple and healthy- Winning!
All you need is 1 ripe Banana and 2 eggs
Mash up the banana with a fork and mix together with two eggs in a bowl.
Heat up a pan with a little bit of coconut oil
Add a little bit of mixture at a time forming small round pancakes and that's it. Easy.
Serve your pancakes with any topping, I usually add blueberries and strawberries.

Enjoy!
