Background

Porridge is probably the healthiest breakfast, but the basic version is quite boring and tasteless, so it’s best to add other healthy ingredients to it, such as fruits and nuts. This almond porridge with cherries is a good example - it’s vegan, high in fiber, gluten-free and really yummy. For a vegetarian version, you can add some yogurt and use honey!

Ingredients

1 cup jumbo rolled porridge oats (gluten-free, if needed)
½ tsp cinnamon powder
2 cups unsweetened almond milk
½ lemon, juiced and zested
3 Tbsp almond flakes, lightly toasted
For the cherry compote:
1 cup defrosted or fresh cherries, stone removed
½ lemon, juiced
2 Tbsp Honey or agave syrup
1 tsp almond extract

Instructions

Put the porridge, cinnamon and almond milk in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes over low heat.
When it’s creamy, turn off the heat, add the lemon juice and zest. Give it a stir, then put a lid on and rest for 5 minutes.
Meanwhile put the pitted cherries in a small sauce pan. Add the lemon juice, honey/syrup and almond extract.
Bring to the boil over medium heat and simmer for 5-8 minutes until you get a thick syrup around the cherries.
Spoon the porridge into two bowls, then spoon the compote on top. Drizzle with more syrup or honey, if you’d like it very sweet.
Scatter the toasted almond flakes on top and serve.
