Ingredients

  • ½ cup (125 mL) dry large flake oats
  • 2 tbsp (30 mL) wheat germ
  • 2 cups (500 mL) plain, non-fat yogurt
  • 3 tbsp (45 mL) smooth peanut butter
  • ½ tsp (2 mL) ground cinnamon
  • ¼ tsp (1 mL) ground ginger
  • 1 red pear, diced
  • 3 tbsp (45 mL) unsalted dry-roasted peanuts, chopped
  • 2 tbsp (30 mL) dried cranberries

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Spread the oats and wheat germ on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Toast for 5 to 7 minutes or until fragrant. Cool to room temperature. Oat mixture can be toasted ahead and stored in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
  2. Stir the yogurt with the peanut butter until well combined. Stir in oat mixture, cinnamon, ginger and pear until well combined. Divide equally between 4 bowls and wrap tightly (or transfer to airtight portable containers). Reserve in the refrigerator overnight or up to 2 days.
  3. Sprinkle with peanuts and cranberries just before serving.

Notes

Tips:

• Replace the oats with one or a combination of grains such as spelt, rye or quinoa flakes that are available at most bulk and health food stores.

• If you prefer a sweetened yogurt, you can add honey to taste. Note that every 1 tsp (5 mL) of honey you add, will add 6 g of sugar per serving.
