Brownie Overnight Oats


This tastes like an indulgent breakfast but is actually quite healthy, Steves's kids adored this one and thought it was properly a dessert! These are perfect for back-to-school season or when you just want a sweet treat that’s also nutritious. This was a brilliant recipe that we trialled for the breakfast section of our new cookbook, The Happy Pear 20. Preorder here: https://thehappypear.ie/articles/pre-order-the-happy-pear-20/
