Servings: 1 serving
Calories: 357kcal
Ingredients
- ½ cup rolled oats gluten free, if required
- 1 cup non-dairy milk
- 1 tablespoon honey divided
- ½ tablespoon chia seeds
- ¼ teaspoon cardamom or cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract optional
Instructions
- Tip the oats into a pot and pour in the non-dairy milk. Sprinkle in the chia seeds and cardamom (or cinnamon) and drizzle in half of the honey and vanilla extract (if using). Stir to combine.
- Bring the porridge to a very light simmer, and heat for 7-8 minutes, stirring fairly frequently to help it get thick and creamy in texture. Adjust with more milk or water to thin, to preference.
- Spoon the porridge into your bowl and top with the remaining honey, and fresh fruit, nuts or seeds to preference.
Notes
- We all like our porridge at different consistencies, so adjust with more milk if you like a thinner texture.
- I like to use all milk for a heartier breakfast, but you can easily use half milk and half water if you prefer.
- Nutritional information is auto-generated and should be understood to be an estimate.
- non-dairy milk has variable scores.
- honey scores 0, with a note 'to be debated. Uneven. Naturally contains benzoic acid'.
- vanilla extract scores 1, with a ? as a liberator and a note, 'From fermented fruit, alcoholic'. It is an optional ingredient.
- cardamom scores 0, with a note (in French) that, roughly translated, states that some varieties may not be well tolerated.
