Cheeky Choccy Porridge

Well it’s starting to feel a lot like winter, Yep it barely drops below 10 degrees here but to me that is freezing!! 😉 

In winter that’s when my smoothie mornings turn to porridge mornings (although I still enjoy my smoothies in winter, sometimes I drink them while I’m showering under boiling hot water… Strange I know) 

Oats are an amazing breakfast, they are full of fibre, low GI, and so they keep you full all morning, plus they’re pretty impossible to stuff up.. 

So here’s a quick recipe for a little naughty porridge recipe I made not long ago 🙂

  

Here’s what you need ::

1/2 cup rolled oats 

1 cup water

1/2 cup almond milk (I use pure harvest- no added cane sugar)

1 tablespoon LSA 

1/2 banana- sliced

Handful of frozen blackberries 

3 peices of loving earth chocolate (or any dark chocolate)

1 heaped tsp of nut butter (I’ve used mayvers chocolate hazelnut butter- healthy version of Nutella) 

1 Tbsp of coconut flakes 

1 Tbsp cacao nibs 

How to make!

1. Add the oats to a pot over medium heat, add the water. Allow water to boil, stir occasionally . 

2. Wait until the water absorbs and keep stirring, once the oats have softened (maybe 5 minutes) then stir in a little of the almond milk  (save some for serving). If cooked to your liking pour into a bowl. 

3. Pour remaining almond milk over, top with the banana, berries, LSA, cacao nibs, coconut, nut butter, and grate the chocolate over the top. Enjoy! 

You can also add a touch of sweetener if you would like, but the chocolate should give it enough sweetness 💕 
Anyway, hope you enjoy this quick easy and delicious recipe!

I’m so grateful for all the amazing support about my ebook! And so so excited! Plus I will still be putting up some recipes on my blog, like this one, while I’m working on my ebook 😄 

  

Have a wonderful day!
