Chocolate Porridge With Coconut Butter, Chopped Almonds & Raspberries
0% refined sugar, 100% Plant Based
Ingredients
- - 100 g fine gluten free oats (can be with gluten if that is not an issue for you)
- - 1 cup of hot water or plant based milk (I use oat milk for extra natural sweetness or unsweetened soy milk, almond milk, etc… -depends on what you like)
- - 2 heaped tbsp raw cacao
- - 0.5 tsp cinnamon
- - 1/4 tsp vanilla powder
- - Pinch of himalayan salt
- - 4-5 drops of stevia (depends if you like it very sweet)
- - 1 tbsp coconut butter
- - 10 g of mixed nuts
- - 2 tsp maple syrup or raw honey
- - 5-10 raspberries or strawberries (frozen or fresh– if you use frozen ones, let them thaw ahead of time – I keep a jar of de-frosted berries in my fridge, when out of season, so I always have them ready for my breaky. They will keep for a week or so)
Optional ingredients to add flavors, nutrients & volume:
- - Extra nuts
- - Extra berries fresh or dry
- - Coconut flakes
- - Fresh mint
- - Pinch of chili
Instructions
- If you like your porridge hot you can make it in a moment, if you like it cold, you can make it and leave it to cool for an hour and then put it in the fridge for extra coolness :)Mix oats with dry ingredients first: raw cacao, cinnamon, vanilla, salt, chili (if you’d like it spicy), add water or your plant milk.Bring it to boil and keep stirring, it will be literally 5-10 minutes and your porridge is ready. Make sure not to burn the pot, and add water if it’s too thick.Sometimes I just mix all the ingredients and pour hot water over them and let them sit 15-20 minutes. Oats will soak it up and you will have your porridge ready without cooking.When it's ready, transfer to 2 bowls and dress it up. When you put coconut butter on a hot porridge, it will melt nicely all over (I love that), sprinkle it with chopped nuts, flakes, and berries, and fresh mint.Enjoy :) Bon Appetit!
