Super Nutty Energy Boosting Porridge

This bowl of porridgey goodness was actually invented by accident. The oats started off as a base for some tasty energy balls. However half way through I discovered I was out of dates (the glue that holds he oats together!) Not wanting to admit defeat or waste perfectly good ingredients I was faced with a bowl of dry, nutty oats and the question what to do? It didn't take long for me to decide on porridge. Porridge is easily one of my favourite meals ever, so I was excited to attempt, and of course eat a new recipe. It just so happens it's one of the nicest bowls of porridge I've ever had the pleasure of eating.....and I hope you think so to. It's so packed full of energy you won't know how you ever coped without it!


200g raw oats
2 tbls peanut butter
1 tbls almond butter
3 tbls coconut oil
Chopped almonds 
Blueberries
Almond milk (or your preference of milk) 

In a bowl mix the oats, peanut & almond butter and the coconut oil. This was the stage I got to when I discovered I was out of dates! Now, not even I could manage a bowl of porridge of this size. Simply pop the oats in an airtight container and they will keep for about a week in the fridge.
To make the porridge add half a cup of oats and a whole cup of milk in a pan and cook over a low heat stirring regularly. Depending on how milky you like your porridge you may want to add more as you're cooking. When it's ready you'll be left with deliciously nutty, creamy porridge. Top with some blueberries and chopped almonds and enjoy!
