Ingredients
1 cup water
1/2 cup skim milk (can substitute soy, rice or other milk)
1/2 cup oats
6 dried prunes
1-2 dried figs
1-2 Tbsp hulled sesames seeds

Method
1. Add water and milk to pan and bring to the boil.
2. Add oats and allow to simmer gently until oats have cooked (about 10-15 minutes) - stir constantly so oats don't stick. Add more water or milk if mixture becomes too thick and gluggy.
3. Once cooked, removed from pan and add equal portions to 2 bowls.
4. Cut figs and prunes into small pieces and add to oats.
5. Sprinkle with nuts and seeds and stir. Serve immediately.
