Baked Grain bowl with blackberries and maple recipe

Chef Niki Webster shares a delectable home favourite, perfect for a breakfast or late morning pick-me-up

Baked oats are pure comfort. For me there is nothing like a cosy bowl of warm oats to make me think of my childhood and my mum making porridge on cold mornings with a sprinkle of brown sugar. 

I think that’s why any form of oat-based breakfast always has a lovely, homely feel to me. Food tastes and smells are so evocative and can trigger memories immediately. 

I enjoy this one most mornings. The gooey warm berries which top the tasty baked oats are also packed with childhood memories of hedgerow berry picking with my family and then warming them up or turning into jam and using them to top porridge or toast. Absolutely delicious!
