Method

For the chocolate oats, simply place all of the ingredients into a bowl, stir well and refrigerate for half an hour until they have thickened up (or leave overnight).

Put the cherries into a small pan along with the maple syrup. Place over a medium to high heat until the cherries have thawed. Stir in the cornflour and heat for a further 5 minutes, or until you have a thick cherry compote.

Fill 3 jars, approx. ¾ full with the chocolate oats, layer the cherry compote on top of this followed by the coconut yoghurt. Top with a fresh cherry and sprinkle of grated dark chocolate on each.
