If there is any word that sums up life in the 21st century, it is surely the word “busy”. It has become the default answer when you ask anybody how they’re doing, and although we might dress it up as a complaint, in truth we all love being busy. If you’re anything like us, the morning is probably the busiest time of the day. Trying to juggle making yourself presentable with making lunch and preparing the school run typically leaves little time for eating—let along making—breakfast, and so The Hut is on cue to lend a hand. There’s no need to slow down though—these speedy breakfast recipes will give you a healthy jump start in no time at all.

  3. Add half of the sliced banana and a swirl of toffee sauce to the porridge and stir. Ladle into Kilner® jars and top with more slices of banana, the toasted pecans and a swirl of toffee sauce.

Spiced Apple Bircher Muesli

This super easy, super delicious and healthy breakfast is ideal to make the night before and add the extra toppings in the morning. Packed full of complex carbohydrates, fibre and healthy fats to keep you going throughout the day, this jar of goodness is sure to make breakfast that little more exciting.

You can make a larger batch of both the Bircher Muesli and the apple topping (keep separately in the fridge) so you have breakfast ready for the week when time is short. Simply add the apples on top and take your Kilner jar to work, the gym - wherever!

Ingredients (Serves 2)
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup almond milk
  • ½ cup unsweetened apple puree
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons sultanas
  • 2 tablespoons flaxseeds
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon mixed spice
  • Freshly grated nutmeg
For the topping
  • 1 large apple (go for Braeburn or Pink Lady)
  • 2 tablespoons honey, maple syrup or coconut nectar
  • 2 tablespoons walnut pieces
  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon tahini
Method
  1. The night before, mix together all of the Bircher Muesli ingredients together in your Kilner jar and leave in the fridge overnight so the oats can soak everything up.
  2. In the morning, chop the apple into chunks and place in a small pan along with the chosen syrup, walnuts and cinnamon. Cook on a low heat for about 5-10 minutes until softened and caramelised a bit, then stir in the tahini and heat through.
  3. Now pour this over your soaked oats and tuck in!
