    Spiced Pear Porridge Vegan

    Spiced Oatmeal With Pear - Spice up your ordinary porridge by adding a few delicious ingredients like fresh pear, cinnamon, and maple syrup. Mix in fresh juicy pear pieces into your oats and top up with your favorite items to start the day with a really beautiful and healthy breakfast that is vegan too!

    This recipe has been updated on 8th of Feb 2021

    Ingredients

    For this delicious spiced oatmeal you'll need 6 main ingredients:

    • regular or nondairy milk 
    • coconut milk
    • oats (GF, if you prefer, no loss of flavor)
    • pear, diced
    • cinnamon
    • kosher salt
    • maple syrup 
    • Peanut butter for drizzling on top (optional)
    • Hazelnuts for topping (optional)

    A quick note about OATS - Pure oats are naturally gluten-free, however, they are processed and manufactured in the same places with gluten-containing grains like barley, wheat, and so on. To be safe, I'd recommend choosing products with a special ''Gluten Free'' label on them.

    How to make Spiced Oatmeal

    STEP 1

    Add the milk to a medium 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.

    STEP 2

    Add in fresh chopped pear, maple syrup (or leave it to drizzle on top later), and coconut milk.  Remove from the heat and cover for 2 minutes to let the pear soften and warm through.

    STEP 3 - READY TO SERVE

    Transfer to your favorite serving bowls and decorate with hazelnuts, pear, peanut butter, pear butter, and sprinkle with cinnamon, drizzle with maple syrup or with any of your favorite toppings. 

    Recipe notes and Variations

    • Another way to enjoy this healthy porridge is to add grated pear instead of chopping it. Totally up to you. I usually like to add grated pear but it all depends how short on time I am that day.
    • 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 even more healthy meal.
    • This recipe will also taste delicious with homemade salted caramel sauce. Simply remove the maple syrup and add the caramel instead.

    This recipe makes about 2 small bowls of porridge or one large.

    What fruit is best with porridge

    Some of my favorite toppings for oatmeal are fruits, berries, coconut flakes, and flaxseed. During fall and winter time I usually love to enjoy a nice big cozy bowl of this Spiced Pear Oatmeal, Creamy Oatmeal Porridge With Grapes And Apricots or top up my oatmeal with bananas.

    During the summer season, my go-to porridge recipe would be anything with strawberries (Pink Oatmeal Strawberry Porridge), raspberries, blueberries, cherries (Pink Oatmeal Porridge With Cherries), coconut and porridge with Matcha. (Matcha Oatmeal Porridge)

    Is porridge good for weight loss?

    Some studies have shown that oats and oatmeal can help people lose weight, lower blood sugar levels and reduce the risk of heart disease and cancer. Read here more in-depth about this topic.

    Some people (including many of my friends) have claimed that it has helped them to lose weight. But this means that they have eaten oatmeal for breakfast almost every morning for a long period of time.

    For me personally, I feel full and much better with my eating habits if I eat a bowl of oatmeal or porridge every morning. It helps me to control my cravings, and keeps me full until late lunch time! (But I usually have a large bowl of gluten free oatmeal because it is delicious!)

    • Slow Cooker Spiced Pear Butter
    • Matcha Tea Porridge Bowl
    • Blueberry Peanut Butter Overnight Oats
    • Healthy Pancake Cereal (Gluten Free)
    • Hazelnut Cherry Granola Bars (Gluten Free)

    I hope you enjoy this delicious Spiced Oatmeal breakfast recipe!

    What's your favorite porridge? And toppings? Please let me know down below in the comments, I can't wait to hear from you!

    Thank you for reading,
