Method

  1. Whisk the whey into the water with a fork until it is smooth.

  2. Stir in the oats and leave for ten minutes, until they have softened and the mixture has thickened.

  3. Slice the kiwi over the top and scatter the seeds.

Worth knowing

  • Whey and water make the thinnest of the oat bowls here, and the ten-minute soak is what stops it eating like dry oats stirred into a shake. Semi-skimmed milk instead of water adds about 55 kcal.
  • Kiwi, like pineapple, breaks down protein and will thin the whey if it sits on it for hours. Slice it on just before eating.
