Examination=crazy

Hello, hello friends!
Dreadfully sorry if this post turns out wishy-washy-upsidowny-crazy-hazy! I just had exams! Maths and English no less!
My brain is fried!
One way to combat fried-brain-ness is a goooood breakfast. Like mine this morning:
I had this lurking in the fridge...
And decided to make one of my all time favourites! Rhubarb crumble! With some alterations of course ;)
Firstly, it was baked rhubarb oatmeal with a cashew nut crust.... but it was good people!
Intrigued? Of course you are :)
Ingredients:
1 rhubarb (stick?)
1/2 banana
1/2 cup rolled oats
1/4 cup muesli
1 cup milk of choice (I used oat)
sprinkle of chia seeds
1 big tablespoon nut butter of choice (I used cashew butter)
optional- coconut butter for top :)

Method:
1. Preheat oven to 180 degreese celsius, grease a mini loaf pan
2. Chop rhubarb:
3.Place in saucepan with thinly sliced 1/2 banana, chia seeds,  and rolled oats:

4. Add milk:
5. Stir every so often on low/medium heat until banana disappears and rhubarb softens and milk is absorbed:
 6. While that's happening place nut butter and a small splash of milk in a small bowl and microwave for 30 seconds, rub muesli into it:
7. Pour oatmeal into mini loaf pan:
8. Top with nutty muesli:
9. Bake in oven for 10-15 mins until golden brown on top! In the meantime with half of your banana you can make a smoothie- I used half a banana, 1 handul of frozen mango and about a cup of soy milk, whazzed up together- so simple, so good!
10. Remove from oven to cool for 5 or so mins... then enjoy!
There it is with my yummy smoothie!
And now some close-ups:
Hello gorgeous!

I love that it's slightly pink :) It's also nice and tangy- not too sweet, the banana adds all the sweetness necessary!
Now, back to relaxing... and thinking to myself that they should let us type our essays...handcramps hurt! Holding spoons don't though ;)
Have a fabulous rest of your week! :D
