- 1/8 tsp cinnamon powder

Mix the milk and yoghurt together in a 330g jar. Add the vanilla, chia seeds, sugar, and cinnamon.

Apple compote.

- 1med Bramley apple
- 1 Granny smith’s apple
- 2tsp castor sugar
- Juice of half a lemon

Peel the apples and cut out the core. Thinly slice the Bramley apple and place in a shallow pan. Cut the Granny Smith’s apple into 1cm dice and add to the pan. Pour the lemon juice over the apple and add the sugar.

Place a lid on the pan and cook over a low to medium heat for 10 to 15 minutes stirring from time to time. When the Bramley apple is broken down and the diced apple cooked through tip the contents of the pan into a small dish to cool.
To serve
- 4 shortbread finger biscuits
- 4tbsp Greek yoghurt
Place the shortbread into a small plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin or similar. Only break the biscuits down to a crumble like texture, don’t powder them.
Check the soaked oats and add a little more milk if needed. Take a suitable glass and fill with layers of oats, Apple compote, and Greek yoghurt.

Top the glass with the crushed biscuits, a dollop of yoghurt and apple then serve.
Enjoy life !
