Anti-inflammatory night oats: the trick to fly away every morning
Difficulty: easy.
Preparation time: 5 – 10 minutes.
Ingredients:
· 4 tablespoons of thick oat flakes.
· 1 cup of vegetable drink without added sugars or milk that you use.
· 1 tablespoon of flax seeds.
· 1 teaspoon of Olettie Anti-inflammatory.
· 3-4 walnuts.
· Toppings to taste: chopped fruit, pieces of pure chocolate, grated coconut or seeds are just some of the toppings that we like to use.
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, mix together the oats, the chopped walnuts, Olletie Anti-inflammatory and the seeds.
2. Add your favourite vegetable drink or milk that you use.
3. Soak overnight (or at least 8 hours) covered with a plate (no need to put it in the fridge).
4. In the morning, heat it a little in a frying pan or simply put in a bowl, and add your toppings to taste. You can also dip it in your favourite vegetable drink or natural yogurt that you use.
Did you know that preparing night oats, in addition to comfort and time saving, has other benefits. Cereals (oat flakes) contain salts of phytic acid, an antinutrient that hinders the absorption of some minerals such as iron, zinc or calcium. Leaving the flakes to soak overnight activates an enzyme called phytase that hydrolyzes phytates, solving our problem with antinutrients.
