This is one of my favourite ways to eat porridge. I add quinoa for an extra protein boost, along with the tahini and the seeds. Eating a breakfast high in protein will help stabilise blood sugar and stop you reaching for snacks mid morning.
serves 1
Ingredients:
1/3 cup glutenfree oats
2 tbsp quinoa flakes
1 1/4 cup almond milk or milk of choice
1 pear, core removed and roughly chopped
1 tsp tahini (i use dark tahini as it contains more nutrients than light tahini)
1/2 tsp vanilla essence / or fresh vanilla scraped from a pod
1 tsp chia seeds
1 tsp sesame seeds
1 tsp raw honey or sweetener of choice (optional)
Method:
Put the oats and quinoa flakes into a pan along with the milk and bring to a simmer, stirring continuously. In a blender, put the pear, tahini and vanilla and blend until smooth. Once the porridge is cooked, pour the pear mixture into the pan and stir to mix. Pour the pear porridge into a bowl and drizzle with honey / or chosen sweetener, chia seeds and sesame seeds.
