Place oats and water into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Once boiling reduce to a simmer.

Add half of the strawberries and fig as well as the vanilla essence and chia seeds and stir through.

Simmer until all of the water has been absorbed and the porridge is a thick consistency.

Turn off the heat and stir through the coconut yoghurt and chia seeds.

Divide between two bowls and top with remaining strawberries, figs and maple syrup or coconut sugar if desired.
