Delicious banana almond butter porridge
Okay, I’m just gonna start by saying that if you love bananas and almond butter, you have to try this banana almond butter porridge. I have so much fun experimenting with different porridge variations and of course, I share the best ones here on the blog with you.
This one is a variation of a choc nut butter porridge that I first came across a few years ago on Dan Churchill’s website. That recipe instantly became one of my favourites, and then I started playing around with my own variations.
Porridge topping ideas
Crumble up a piece of dark chocolate next to the almond butter. Let it melt a little bit, and then stir it through your porridge.
I usually alternate my fruit between banana and strawberries, they both go equally as well with the almond butter and chocolate!
As always, add any of your favourite toppings, and don’t forget to tag me on Instagram with your pics @wendyswaytohealth. Or share in the WENDY’S WAY FACEBOOK GROUP, so we can all be inspired.
The coconut milk I use makes this porridge recipe really creamy, and it’s great for vegans and vegetarians.
If you do use a different milk, it’s easier to add after you pour the oatmeal mixture into your bowl.
