Notes
For a sweeter blackberry jam, add a teaspoon of maple syrup while cooking the berries.
Use old-fashioned rolled oats, not instant, for the best texture.
Stir the oat mixture very well to prevent clumping of protein powder or chia seeds.
These oats are best enjoyed cold, but can be gently warmed if preferred.
