Cornflakes with Blueberries & Soya Yoghurt
By: Debra Carey
For a quick breakfast but still giving you all the nutrition and calories you need for the day, cornflakes are a great stand-by to have in your pantry. Top with your favourite fruit and choice of yoghurt.
You can get in extra needed calories by adding chopped nuts. I find almonds are a tasty compliment to the flavour of cornflakes. Plus a drizzle of honey or maple syrup to give you that extra boost.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup (50g) cornflakes
- 100ml almond milk
- 1/3 cup blueberries
- 1 tbsp soya yoghurt
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
Cornflakes are usually gluten free but much like oats, it depends on where they are manufactured to ensure they are totally gluten free. So I always opt for gluten free cornflakes to ensure I don’t have an allergic reaction. Alternative yoghurts such as oat, coconut or goats milk yoghurt are just as nice as soya.
