This is a fab recipe for all you members who like to start the day with a warming bowl of porridge, taken from Jamie Oliver's Super Food Family Classics cook book. It’s healthy and chocolaty all at the same time and will set you up for the day ahead.
INGREDIENTS
200g nuts
200g dates
400g porridge oats
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 heaped tablespoons raw cocao powder
1 orange
FOR EACH PORTION
200ml coconut water
Chopped fresh fruit
1 heaped tablespoon Greek yoghurt (if desired)
METHOD
Toast the nuts in a dry pan on a medium heat until golden, tossing often, then tip into a food processor. Tear the stones out of the dates and add the flesh to the processor with half the oats, the vanilla extract and cocao powder. Finely grate in the orange zest and pulse until fine, then stir the mixture back through the rest of the oats. Pour into an airtight jar, ready to use (you can keep this for 2 weeks).
When you want a portion, simply put 65g of the mixture into a saucepan with 200ml of coconut water and heat gently over a medium-low heat for 3 minutes, or until it’s the consistency that you like, stirring regularly and adding splashes of water to loosen, if needed. Serve each portion with a spoonful of Greek yoghurt and top with fresh fruit of your choice.
We hope you all enjoy it as much as we have.
