meet the ferment*…

Overnight oats are our all-time favourite brekkie as they’re high-fibre and there are so many different combinations you can try! By making a batch for the week ahead, you’re guaranteed a nutritious, gut-friendly breakfast with minimal effort.

Overnight oats are fermented by the process of lacto-fermentation using beneficial bacteria found in live yogurt or kefir (lactobacillus).
