Instructions
Add the milk to a pot and bring to a simmer. Add in the oats and a teaspoon of salt and cinnamon.
Cook, stirring occasionally for the porridge not to stick to the bottom of the pot. Stir until the oats are creamy and have absorbed the liquid, about 5-8 minutes.
Add a little more liquid if needed. I usually add more because I like more liquid-y looking porridge.
Stir in cocoa powder, maple syrup (or leave it to drizzle on top later), vanilla, and coconut milk. Remove from the heat and cover for 2 minutes.
Transfer to your favorite serving bowls and decorate with plenty of toppings, butter, pear butter, berry banana jam, peanut butter, fruits and more.
Tips and variations
- Another way to enjoy this healthy porridge is to add grated or finely chopped fruits and whole berries. You can add even frozen berries in the end, and let the porridge sit under the closed lid until fruit/berries will soften (when cooking is done and removed from heat).
- This recipe is delicious and filling plus you get a nice portion of daily nutrition needed like fruit and fiber at the same time. Feel free to swap pear with apple or have both!
- Add in organic chia seeds, flax seeds to make it an even more healthy meal.
This recipe makes about 2 small bowls of chocolate porridge or one large.
