Porridge

Porridge is my favourite breakfast - I literally have it every morning without fail :) it's so comforting and delicious! You can also top it with pretty much anything, so it never gets boring. Seeing as my blog is called porridgexprincess, I'm definitely going to do quite a lot of blog posts on my favourite porridge recipes! I have a lot, so here are just a few :-) don't worry, a lot more will come, and if you have any requests please just ask ;)

MANGO, BANANA AND PASSIONFRUIT OATS 

Ingredients - (you can change the measurements to whatever suits you!)

60g mango, a banana, a passionfruit, 50g oats and 250ml almond milk~water (can be any milk)

Method- put the oats and milk in a pan on the stove, on a high heat. Let the mixture absorb for a minute or two, then cut the passionfruit open and scoop the pulp into the pan. Keep stirring for a while, until the oats start to thicken. Once it starts to boil, turn the heat down. Then add the mango (leave a tiny bit to top) and half the banana in chunks. Keep stirring and stirring until the oats have reached the thickness you want them to be, then pour in a bowl and top with the rest of the mango and the other half of the banana :) 

The mango, passionfruit and banana go really well together, and it's so yummy and creamy! One of my favs!

RASPBERRY, STRAWBERRY AND BANANA PORRIDGE

Ingredients - (once again you can change all the measurements) 

50g  raspberries, 80g strawberries, a banana, 50g oats and 250ml almond milk~water (or any milk)

Method- it's the same method as the mango, passionfruit and banana oats really! Just put the oats and milk in a pan on the stove, then after a minute add the raspberries and stir until the mixture goes pinkish. Then when it's almost done, add half of the banana and half of the strawberries in chunks and  stir until ready! Pour in a bowl and top with the other half of the strawbs and banana :) yum!

  




CARROT CAKE OATS

Ingredients - (you can change the measurements)

50g raspberries, heaped teaspoon of cinnamon, 1/4tsp nutmeg and 1/4tsp ginger, 250ml almond milk~water, a banana, 50g oats, a carrot

Method - cook the oats and milk on the stove on a high heat, then after a minute add the raspberries and let them disintegrate. Once the oats start boiling, turn the heat down a bit. After a while, add the GRATED carrot (I forgot to grate it once and peeled it, and it wasn't very nice! So remember to grate it) you don't have to add all the carrot, it depends how much you want. Keep stirring and then add the cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger. When it looks about done, add the banana chopped up in chunks (leave a bit for topping) and stir. Pour in a bowl to serve and top with the remainder of the banana. :)





CINNAMON, BANANA AND MELTED RASPBERRY OATS with mango (optional)

Ingredients - (you can change the measurements)

50g oats, heaped teaspoon cinnamon, a banana, 250ml almond milk~water, 50 g raspberries, (50g mango)

Method - cook the oats and milk in a pan on the stove, and when it looks about done, add the cinnamon and half the banana chopped up in chunks. (You can also had most of the mango now if you have mango) whilst it's still slowly cooking, put the raspberries in a bowl in the microwave and let them melt for about 25 seconds. When the oats are done, pour them in a bowl and top with the rest of the banana (the rest of the mango) and the melted raspberries! So nice :)




RASPBERRY PORRIDGE TOPPED WITH A BANANA AND A HEATED UP STRAWBERRY CRUNCH NAKD BAR

Ingredients - (you can change the measurements)

50 g raspberries, a small banana, 50g oats, 150ml almond milk, a strawberry crunch (can be any flavour) nakd bar, 100ml water (or more milk)

Method - cook the oats, milk, water and raspberries in a pan on the stove as usual. When they are almost done, add half the banana in chunks and keep stirring. Whilst this is cooking, heat the nakd bar in the microwave for about 10 seconds. Then pour the oats in a bowl, top with the other half of the banana and the nakd bar cut in chunks :) delicious!!
