Breakfast with Strawberry Chia Jam
· 3 servings
Make the jam
Mash 5 strawberries with a fork until smooth, then stir in the chia seeds. Leave to sit for about 5 hours – the chia seeds will soak up the strawberry juice and turn into a lovely chia jam.
Oats
Soak the oats in coconut milk, stirring in the syrup or coconut sugar as well, then leave in the fridge for about 5 hours too. The oats will soak up the milk and turn into a creamy porridge. Finely chop some of the pecans and stir them into the oats.
Slice the strawberries
Cut the remaining, larger strawberries into smaller pieces, ready for layering.
Layering tip
I used empty yoghurt jars: first a layer of strawberry jam, then the oats, topped with fresh strawberries, pecans and a sprinkling of spelt flakes.
