Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Almost every morning I try to decide: steel cut oats, rolled oats, or oat bran? It’s never occurred to me to combine rolled oats and oat bran together! I grated my pear and cooked it in with my oats. When it was time to add the oat bran I also included a bit of ground flax, wheat germ, and pb2. Topped with some blueberries, pecan, and a bit of extra almond/oat milk. Made a lot! Will continue to experiment with ratios to find my personal one.
