Semper Organic Gluten Free Oat Milk

This oat milk does not have added calcium (or other micronutrients) so do make sure you get it from other sources.

This dairy free, lactose free milk alternative is so simple to make from scratch. Semper’s oat flakes are specially handled during growing and harvesting to avoid contamination with gluten from other grains so are suitable for coeliacs.

Chestnut Crispbread with Chia Jam

Crispbreads for breakfast? Le Pain des Fleurs Chestnut Crispbread makes a deliciously light breakfast or sweet afternoon treat. Swap the butter for a plant based spread and the recipe is vegan.

Print Recipe
Chia Jam
This alternative to regular jam uses chia as the thickening agent. Therefore, it is lower in sugar and has no added refined sugar. Chia seeds are very high in fibre which makes the jam lower glycaemic index. Chia is also a good plant based source of calcium, phosphorus and magnesium.
