With winter fast approaching, I need a more hearty breakfast to power me through the day.
I’m a big fan of porridge for exactly that reason. But I wanted to try an alternative to the typical oats & milk/water combination.
So I decided to make a grain-free AND dairy-free porridge.
To do this I soaked mixed nuts and coconut flakes in water with a pinch of salt.
I left them overnight to really soften them.
Then after draining and washing them, I blended them up with an egg yolk and half a banana to make a nice thick mixture.
In the meantime I sautéed apple pieces and nutmeg in coconut oil in a pan.
When the apple had softened, I added some coconut milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon...
Then add the blended nuts mixture.
Heat through thoroughly, brining to a gentle simmer until it’s the desired textures.
And serve!
I always make extra so I have a portion cold the next day, topped with extra fruits.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cup mixed nuts (I used cashews, almonds & walnuts)
- 1/3 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
- 1 egg yolk
- 1/2 banana
- splash coconut oil
- 1 apple
- 1 1/2 - 2 cups coconut milk (depending on how thin/thick you like your porridge)
- 1/2 cup SUPERGOODFRUITS freeze-dried blackberries
- sprinkle nutmeg
- 1/2 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 tablespoon cinnamon
