The best thing about cooler mornings? Porridge!
Your morning oats are packed with essential minerals, vitamins fibre and a surprising amount of protein, making them pretty much the perfect start the day.
The trick is NOT to cover them in brown sugar, honey or dried fruit (hello, fructose bomb). Luckily, we have a few sugar-free tricks up our sleeves…
1. Chuck in some spices.
Bad-breath-stopping nutmeg, antimicrobial cardamom and anti-inflammatory cinnamon are quick and delicious porridge peps. Sprinkle and go!
2. Try different milks.
Rather than using water or milk, why not try some milk alternatives like coconut, almond, oat, rice or soy? It will get your porridge both a texture and taste change without having to do anything much different.
3. Throw in some fresh fruit.
Raspberries, blueberries or strawberries are always a good choice. These add some sweetness without you being tempted to add a spoonful of raw sugar.
4. Spoon in nut butter.
Brown sugar, get out of here! Nut butter in your morning oats make for a satiating, nutrient-rich brekkie that’s guaranteed to keep you full longer than that brown sugar every could.
You can even make it yourself!
5. Add some seeds.
Flaxseeds, chia seeds and sunflower seeds are great additions to sprinkle on your porridge each morning for a dose of protein and good fats. This also works with nuts!
6. Make it savoury.
Wait, savoury porridge? Trust, us this is Savoury Breakfast Porridge gonna blow your mind.
