    As a coeliac I struggle to find a breakfast that's enjoyable, nutritious and provides fibre. I used gluten-free rolled oats (Waitrose) and left out the coconut, replacing it with pecan nuts, and use dried cranberries, for a hint of sharpness. It is a perfect combination for me. Like many posting here, I couldn't wait for my treat to cool down so the first portion, with pro-biotic yogurt, was crunchy and warm. Really delicious.

    I was getting bored of my usual breakfast cereals - so decided to try this - its delicious and so easy to make! I made it without the almonds (nut allergy) and used melted butter instead of vegetable oil...and I used mixed tropical fruits instead of berries. My husband says its better than any shop bought cereal he's ever had!!
