Fig, Maple and Cinnamon Compote with oats and yoghurt




There's something cosy about having breakfast in the early Autumn weeks. When it's cold and crisp outdoors it's comforting prepare a warming breakfast to set you up for the day ahead. 

Figs are beautifully in season; with an earthy, sweet taste that pairs beautifully with maple syrup and cinnamon.


Start your bowl with a layer of oats and spoon over a generous amount of non-dairy yoghurt. I love Provamel's Soya yoghurt lightly sweetened with agave syrup as it has a mild flavour and only natural sweetness. Top with the warmed figs, a drizzle of the cinnamon-maple syrup and sprinkle with crunchy chopped pistachio nuts for the perfect breakfast. 


Serves 1 
2 ripe figs, quartered
2 tbsp maple syrup 
1 cinnamon stick, snapped in half (or 1 tsp ground cinnamon) 
3 tbsp oats 
2 tbsp Provamel soya sweetened with agave yoghurt  
6 pistachio nuts, shelled and chopped roughly 

Method
1. In a pan, heat the figs, maple syrup and cinnamon until just simmering 
2. In the meantime, add the oats to a bowl and spoon over the yoghurt 
3. Top with the hot figs and drizzle over the cinnamon infused maple syrup. Sprinkle with chopped pistachios and serve immediately. 

Enjoy!
