Allergens

  • Gluten
  • Milk
  • Oats count as a gluten cereal under UK labelling and ordinary oats are milled alongside wheat. Certified gluten-free oats are a separate ingredient here.

Flags follow UK labelling rules and come from the ingredients as listed, not from any particular brand. Check the packet before cooking for somebody with an allergy.

Method

  1. Blend the oats dry for ten seconds.

  2. Add the milk, skyr, flaxseed and cinnamon and blend until smooth.

  3. Add the apple in chunks and the ice and blend for a further forty seconds. Apple skin takes a while to go, so keep going until there are no flecks.

Worth knowing

  • Skyr gives this 27 g of protein with no powder in it. It is the yogurt to use when you want the protein of a shake and the taste of a yogurt drink.
  • Ground flaxseed is 5 kcal a gram and thickens as it sits, so drink this within ten minutes or it becomes a spoon job.
