Method

Step 1

Place the apricots in a small pan and cover with the juice. Bring to the boil and simmer for 5 minutes.

Step 2

Set aside for 10 minutes, then place in a food processor or blender and blend to form a purée.

Step 3

Place the oats in a small pan, cover with 600ml of water, then place over a low heat and cook for 3–4 minutes.

Step 4

Stir through half the apricot purée, divide between 2 bowls, then top with the toasted seeds and a swirl of the remaining purée.

Recipe tips

To toast the seeds, add them to a dry frying pan over a medium heat, stir and remove from the pan as soon as they start to brown.
The seeds aren't essential to this recipe, though they are a good source of omega-3 fatty acids, which help maintain good heart health.
Also works well with blueberries instead of apricots.
