High Fiber Porridge Recipe

Quantities listed make approximately 2 regular servings

Ingredients:

1 cup of quick cook steel-cut oats
2 cups of water
Small handful of organic raisins or other dried fruit (optional)
Ground almonds
Hemp seed hearts
Pinch of cinnamon
Pinch of sea salt
1 teaspoon of organic honey (optional)
1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk (optional)

Directions:

1. Combine raisins, steel-cut oats, pinch of cinnamon, pinch of sea salt, and 2 cups of water in a pot and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and stir regularly until oats are well cooked and porridge has a natural creamy texture - takes about 5 minutes.

2. Just before serving, add 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk and teaspoon of organic honey (optional) and stir until well incorporated - this adds more natural creaminess to the porridge.

3. Transfer to serving bowls and add a heaping tablespoon each of ground almonds and hemp seed hearts.

Feel free to add other toppings like sliced bananas, berries, cherries, other nuts, and even a dollop of almond butter for added texture, flavour, and easily digested protein. Enjoy!
