This fig and date overnight oats recipe finds itself on repeat in my house in Ramadan, particularly at suhoor, the dawn pre-fast meal. Slow-release energy from the oats, figs and dates is really critical in Ramadan and the addition of fibre-dense chia seeds, live gut-loving yoghurt and nutrient-filled nuts and seeds makes this recipe a complete winner.
