This delicious vegetarian-friendly dessert is easy to prepare, whether in the oven or microwave. No matter how much time you have, you can whip up this sweet treat quickly! Packed with tasty blackberries and high-fibre oats, it’s the perfect post-dinner treat that’s both healthy and satisfying.

Ingredients

2 eggs (medium)
300ml semi-skimmed milk
100g rolled oats (use gluten-free variety if necessary)
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 bananas
200g blackberries, frozen

Method

Oven method

Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan.
Whisk the eggs and milk together in a small bowl with a fork until evenly mixed.
Put the rolled oats and baking powder in a bowl and mix well together.
Add the mashed bananas and frozen blackberries and mix again.
Add the milk and egg mixture and combine thoroughly.
Pour into an ovenproof dish and cook for 30-35 minutes until cooked through.
Serve immediately.

Microwave method

Mix all of the ingredients in a bowl as above.
Divide the mixture evenly between 4 mugs. Only fill the mugs about 2/3 full or they will overflow in the microwave.
Heat on high for 2 ½ minutes. Depending on the wattage of your microwave, this should be long enough to cook it. If not, put it on high for another 15 seconds and repeat until cooked.
Serve immediately straight out of the mug.

Top tip: try different flavour combinations like apple and blackberry or peach and raspberry. You can also use fresh, frozen, tinned and leftover fruit – they all count towards your 5 A DAY. Serve with a spoonful of low-fat natural yoghurt.
