Why it fits: Built on oats, banana, and low-fat dairy with no citrus, chocolate, or coffee, and the only flavourings are gentle ginger and a little maple syrup.

Ingredients

1 cup rolled oats
1 cup low-fat milk
1/2 cup low-fat plain yogurt
1 ripe banana, mashed
1 tsp grated fresh ginger
1 tbsp maple syrup
Pinch of salt
Banana slices, to serve

Method

Stir the oats, milk, yogurt, mashed banana, ginger, maple syrup, and salt together in a jar or bowl.
Cover and refrigerate overnight, or for at least 4 hours.
Loosen with a splash of milk if needed, then top with banana slices and serve cold.

Swaps and notes: Use lactose-free milk if regular milk bothers you, or swap the maple syrup for honey.
