Seed Porridge with 8 Flavor Variations

Ingredients:


  • ¼ cup shredded unsweetened coconut
  • ¼ cup raw walnuts
  • ¼ cup sliced almonds
  • 2 Tbsp raw pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
  • 1 Tbsp flaxseed meal
  • ½ cup water
  • ½ Tbsp honey or stevia to taste (optional)

Directions:

Process coconut, walnuts, almonds, pumpkin seeds and flaxseed meal together in a blender or food processor until finely ground and blade starts to seize.

Add, seed mixture, water and honey to a small saucepan and heat over medium-low heat stirring constantly for 4-5 minutes, until it almost simmers.  Let sit for 3-5 minutes to thicken. 


Variations:  Just like traditional porridge, you can stir in some extra ingredients at the end to change the flavor.  Here are some ideas, but feel free to experiment!


  • Spiced Porridge:  Stir in ½ tsp ground nutmeg and ½ tsp ground cinnamon before eating.
  • Apple-Cinnamon Porridge:  Stir in some finely diced apple and ½ tsp ground cinnamon.
  • Maple-Nut Porridge:  Use 1 Tbsp real maple syrup, instead of honey and sprinkle 2 Tbsp chopped pecans over the top.
  • Banana-Nut Porridge:  Omit honey and mash in half of a ripe banana.  Sprinkle 2 Tbsp chopped pecans over the top.
  • Blueberry Porridge: Stir in 1/3 cup fresh or frozen blueberries (or any other berry you like).
  • Pumpkin Pie Porridge:  Stir in ¼ cup pumpkin puree and 1/8 tsp (a good pinch) each of ground cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, allspice and cloves.
  • Butter and Salt Porridge:  Stir in ½ tsp sea salt (or to taste) and let 1 Tbsp unsalted butter melt over the top.
  • Chocolate Porridge:  Stir in 1 Tbsp cocoa power.
