2 cup reduced-fat milk, plus extra, to serve

4 canned pear halves in natural juice, drained, chopped

1 tablespoon raw honey, plus extra, to serve (see note)

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

strawberries, hulled, halved, to serve

2 tablespoon LSA mix (see recipe tips)

Method

1.In a saucepan, combine oats and milk. Bring to boil over low heat, stirring constantly.

2.Mix in chopped pears. Simmer 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat. Stir in honey and cinnamon.

3.Spoon into two serving bowls. Top with strawberries and sprinkle with LSA. Serve with extra milk and honey if desired.

Raw honey hasn’t been heat treated so it retains all the antibacterial health benefits. Studies have shown it keeps free radicals at bay. You can find it in health food shops or online. LSA is a mixture of ground linseeds, sunflower seeds and almonds. For extra sweetness chop a few dried pitted dates and add with the pears.
