Breakfast Bites: Atholl Brose

A classic favourite for the health fans at Ragdale Hall, what better way to kick start Spabreaks.com’s month of new beginnings and a happy healthy springtime?!

Ingredients (Serves four)

175g (6oz) Medium oatmeal

250g (9oz) Raspberries

Four tbsp clear honey

500g (1lb 2oz) Low fat natural yogurt

Preheat the grill.
Sprinkle the oatmeal onto a baking sheet and toast it lightly until golden brown. Leave it to cool.
In a large mixing bowl, stir together two tbsp of the honey and the yogurt, then mix in the cooled oats.
Layer the mixture into serving glasses with the raspberries and remaining honey, reserving a few raspberries to arrange on top.
Chill until ready to serve.

Chef’s tip: Make this the night before and chill in the fridge overnight - it will taste even better!
