Method

1. Mix the oats, chopped dates, cinnamon and half the seeds together in a bowl with a pinch of salt. Pour the almond drink over, cover and pop in the fridge for 8 hrs or overnight.

2. In the morning, grate the zest from the oranges into a separate bowl. Cut a slice off the top and bottom of the oranges. Carve the peel and white pith from the sides. Squeeze any juice from the peel into the bowl.

3. Use a small knife to cut the juicy orange segments into the bowl. Add the maple syrup to the bowl with the oranges. Stir to make a quick compote.

4. Stir the almond butter and a few spoonfuls of the juices from the orange compote through the oats. Top with the orange segments, drizzling over any remaining juices. Sprinkle the remaining seeds over. Delicious with a dollop of dairy-free yogurt.

5. Quick Fix
If you don't want to wait overnight to eat your oats, you can simply warm the oats and milk together and have it as a porridge, topped with the blood orange compote.
