Soothing sunshine breakfast bowl

This wholesome breakfast bowl recipe combines oats, banana, ginger and dates for a bright start to the day. Plus, it gets its sunshine yellow hue from the anti-inflammatory spice turmeric

Ingredients

1 cup wholegrain oats, soaked in water for 30 minutes, then drained

1/2 cup Greek yoghurt

1 tablespoon ground turmeric

1/2 teaspoon ginger, grated

1/2 banana

2 dates, stones removed

1 tablespoon chia seeds, soaked in juice of ½ a tangelo or orange for 10 minutes

1/2 cup ice

Topping

1/2 banana, sliced

2 tablespoon pumpkin seeds

2 tablespoon sunflower seeds

2 dates, chopped

Method

1.Blend all ingredients, except toppings, and spoon smoothie into serving bowls. If you prefer to serve the smoothie cold, cover and chill for 10 minutes. Arrange toppings equally between two bowls and serve with spoons.

Chia should be soaked in liquid before blending. It will form a gel that thickens the smoothie, which makes it a great addition to smoothies where you want a thick texture.
