One of the things I've struggled with since my diagnosis is finding a breakfast that is quick, easy and filling. Since I didn't have my own toaster at university I couldn't do toast quickly so I was forever looking for ideas that would fill me up. When you have a lecture and then a seminar and know that you have to go an hour or two in the morning then these overnight oats are perfect. This is the first recipe I've tried and I loved it. I'm going to be trying different variations with the same fruit (since I can't afford tonnes of fruit at university) and flavours over the next week or so.
Blueberry and Banana Overnight Oats

60-70ml gluten free oats

Pinch of sugar
A clean jar with a lid
