- 1 c steel cut oats
- 1 tbsp ground flaxseed
- Pinch of sea salt
- 2 c unsweetened almond milk

Notes
Will keep in the fridge for up to 5 days. Berries and nuts can be switched up as well as the applesauce. Consider using pumpkin, cranberries and walnuts. Consider using pear sauce, mashed banana in your wet ingredients – get creative!
