Instructions
1. Prepare the Blueberry Compote:

• Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
• Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5-7 minutes, or until the blueberries break down and the mixture thickens to a jam-like consistency.
• Remove from heat and let it cool slightly. The compote will thicken more as it cools.
2. Prepare the White Oat Base:
• In a mixing bowl, combine the MJ’s white oats, milk, mashed banana, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.
• Stir well to ensure everything is thoroughly combined.
3. Assemble the Breakfast Bowl:
• Divide the white oat mixture into serving bowls.
4. Add the Toppings:
• Spoon a generous amount of the blueberry compote over the oat base.
• Arrange slices of fresh banana and a handful of fresh blueberries on top.
5. Add Crunch:
• Sprinkle chopped nuts over the bowl for added texture and nutty flavor.
6. Drizzle and Optional Yogurt:
• Drizzle a little extra honey or maple syrup over the bowl for extra sweetness, if desired.
• If you like, add a dollop of Greek yogurt or a yogurt alternative on top for creaminess.
