Notes

For vegan: Use plant-based milk and a flax egg (1 tbsp flaxseed + 3 tbsp water).
This keeps well in the fridge for 4–5 days and reheats beautifully.
Make it ahead and slice into bars for a quick breakfast or snack.
Add a handful of cranberries for a tart touch or swirl in almond butter for extra richness.
