  1. Really want to try this, but I was wondering where the porridge oats fit in? I know you have said they are optional, but I can’t see them mentioned in the recipe at all. Thank you.

    1. .They can be added at any time as they only take a few minutes to cook. Edited now- no idea how they were left out of the post.
