My Favourite Porridge

My favourite porridge is a comforting bowl combining some simple but delicious toppings! I know porridge is a typical breakfast dish but nothing screams comfort to me like a bowl of oats so I often have it after a long day of work when I need a pick me up or just as a after workout dinner.

Serves 1

Cooks in 10 Minutes

Ingredients

  • 40g oats
  • 250ml unsweetened almond milk or coconut milk
  • 2 egg whites
  • pinch sea salt
  • 2 handfuls frozen berries
  • 1-2 tsp honey or maple
  • 1-2 squares dark chocolate (optional)
  • 1 tbsp. toasted flaked almonds for crunch (optional)


Method

  1. In a saucepan over medium heat add the nut milk, oats and salt.
  2. Cook as you usually would make porridge stirring until the consistency is kind of “stodgy”.
  3. Remove from the heat and working quickly whisk in the egg whites using a fork stirring constantly until the oats turn creamy and expand a little with no trace of eggy bits.
  4. For the toppings heat the berries and cook until dissolved, remove form the heat and stir in the honey. Pour over the oats and top off with the dark chocolate & stir and enjoy!
