Spiced Apple Porridge

Servings 2 Servings

Ingredients

  • 150 g rolled oats
  • 4 dates stoned and finely chopped
  • 10 almonds chopped
  • 2 tbsp pumpkin seeds
  • 2 tbsp sunflower seeds
  • 2 tbsp sultanas
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • 400 ml almond milk
  • Small pinch sea salt

For spiced apples

  • 2 apples cored and cut into chunks
  • 2 strips of lemon or orange rind
  • 1 tbsp maple syrup optional
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • Pinch of freshly grated nutmeg
  • Pinch of ground allspice
  • Splash of water

To Serve: (optional)

  • Seasonal fruit
  • Coconut yogurt

Instructions

To make the apples

  • Add the chopped apples and citrus rind to a small saucepan, then drizzle with maple syrup, cinnamon and nutmeg. You may need to add a tiny splash of water, not too much though as the apples will release their own juice.
  • Cook for approx. 5-7 minutes on medium heat until fork tender and caramelised.
  • Set aside.

To make the oats

  • Add the oats, milk, dates, sultana, nuts, seeds and spices to a small saucepan, simmer on a low heat, stirring continuously for 7-8 minutes until the porridge has absorbed the milk but is not too dry.
  • Turn off the heat and stir in more plant-based milk if needed.
  • Spoon into a bowl and top with the caramelised apples, coconut yogurt and seasonal fruit.
