Ingredients

BASE RECIPE

160g rolled porridge oats

600ml milk, soya milk or water

Top Tip

To make blackberry and apple porridge: stir through coarsely grated apple (core and all) and runny honey, then squash in a handful of blackberries. Top with more fruit and a drizzle of syrup.

Method

  1. Place the oats and the milk or water in a large pan over a medium heat.
  2. Add a tiny pinch of sea salt and stir with a wooden spoon.
  3. Bring to a steady simmer for 5 to 6 minutes, stirring as often as you can to give you a smooth creamy porridge – if you like your porridge runnier, simply add a splash more milk or water until you’ve got the consistency you like.
  4. Jazz up your porridge with your favourite combo of fresh fruit, nuts and seeds, sweetening to taste – see below for inspiration.

To make banana, almond and cinnamon porridge: stir in a generous pinch of ground cinnamon, some poppy seeds and maple syrup. Top with sliced banana and a handful of toasted almonds.

To make apple, maple syrup and pecan porridge: stir through coarsely grated apple (core and all) and maple syrup, then top with a handful of toasted pecans and a drizzle more syrup.
