Background
Porridge is probably the healthiest breakfast but eating it plain can be boring day after day. So why donβt you jazz it up with fruits, nuts or a simple compote? This porridge with caramelized grapefruit takes no longer than making the porridge itself - while the porridge is cooking and resting you can make the compote.
Ingredients
- 50g rolled porridge oats (gluten-free, if needed)
- 350 ml fresh milk ( or plant-based milk)
- 1 pink grapefruit
- 1 knob of nutter or dairy-free alternative
- 2 Tbsp muscovado sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 handful nuts of your choice, optional
- 2 Tbsp maple or agave syrup, to serve
Instructions
- Put the porridge, half of the cinnamon and milk in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes over low heat. It should be creamy, so add a little more milk, if needed.
- Turn off the heat, stir a bit, then put a lid on and rest for 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, peel the grapefruit, and remove the membrane.
- Heat the butter in another pan, add the grapefruit flesh, as wedges or torn into pieces, then add the sugar and cinnamon. Caramelize for a few minutes, until sticky.
- Spoon the porridge into bowls add the caramelized grapefruit and some nuts, if used. Drizzle with agave/maple syrup and serve.
