Boring porridge just had a makeover… and it is delicious and more nutrient-packed than ever! A great winter warmer.

Porridge:

1/3 cup oats (I use gluten-free)

1 large banana, mashed well

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 tsp pure maple syrup/ raw honey/ coconut nectar

½ cup water

½ cup coconut milk (or milk of choice)

1 heaped tbsp cacao

1 tbsp nut butter (I use macadamia, hazelnut, cashew or almond butter)

½ tsp mesquite (optional)

1 scoop of clean protein (optional- I love Inca Organics and 180 Nutrition Coconut Protein)

1 tbsp coconut yoghurt

Topping:

Activated nuts and seeds, to top

Coconut yoghurt, to top

Sweet cacao nibs, to top

1. Add all porridge ingredients in a small- medium saucepan and bring to boiling point. Simmer for around 5 minutes, stirring or until the porridge has reached a desired consistency.
2. Decorate with toppings and serve.
