Healthy Eton Mess and Layered Breakfast Pots
We love these quick and easy little pots, either a perfect breakfast or simply adapt for a speedy pudding! Simply layers of fruit and yogurt with either granola (see our Amazing Granola recipe) or oats, or try using broken up meringue pieces for a speedy summery treat.
This would work all year round - simply choose seasonal fruit to suit your tastes. We have used summer berries which are bang in season at the moment, but it would be very tasty with an apple compote, or passion fruit & mango slices for a tropical twist.
Berries are packed full of immune boosting antioxidants such as Vitamin C, and yogurt contains friendly bacteria to help support a happy digestive system.
Natural live yogurt
Shop bought meringues (unless of course you have any leftover from another recipe)
Summer berries - raspberries, blueberries, strawberries
Granola or plain oats (gluten free if required)
I have not set specific quantities as they are not required here. Simply get a glass and place a layer of yoghurt in the bottom. Add a tablespoon or two of fruit and then a layer of granola/oats (or crushed merinuge if making dessert). Add another dollop of yoghurt and continue to layer up, creating a pretty layered effect.
We find these are best eaten immediately (not usually a problem!) as the granola/oats/meringues may become soggy.
