Bringing porridge into spring with this little number! I know rosewater isn’t everyone’s cup of tea but I love it’s delicate sweet flavour. It’s sort of liking eating spring. And if you’ve ever cooked with it you probs have a big bottle languishing in the pantry, here’s how to use it up;)
BLUEBERRY AND OAT SPICED BREAKFAST MUFFINS
An easy to make ahead recipe for those mornings when you’re going to have to eat on the go. These muffins are full of protein, fibre and antioxidants thanks to the key ingredients, making them a great start to your day.
PEANUT BUTTER AND RASPBERRY PORRIDGE
PERSIMMON SMOOTHIE BOWL
I found a bag of persimmons at my local market for $2 last week. They were in varying stages of ripeness and all nice and little. So I thought, screw you fructose I’m buying these. And I am so glad I did, because it turns out I can still totally tolerate a little persimmon, they were so sweet and delicious and made for the tastiest non-chocolate smoothie bowl I’ve had in a while.
CHOC-RASPBERRY BLISS BALLS
GRAB AND GO BREAKFASTS
OVERNIGHT OATS WITH CINNAMON NUT CRUMBLE AND CARAMELISED PLUMS
This is a delicious breakfast and perfect as we approach summer as it’s both cold and involves summer stone fruit – yum! You can make everything the night before so in the morning you just layer it all together (also known as throwing the topping in your oat jar/container) and you’re ready to run out the door.
STRAWBERRY AND VANILLA BEAN PORRIDGE
It’s a weird time of year in Melbourne. We’re oscillating between smoothie and cold drink weather and warm porridge weather. Sort of typical Melbourne really. This porridge straddles that fence nicely. Strawberries are abundant at the moment as the weather heats up around the country and they are so delicious teamed with the vanilla scented creaminess of this porridge.
PEANUT BUTTER AND CHOCOLATE OAT COOKIES
Cookies. Is there a better word to hear when you’re feeling a little snacky? I have quite a few cookie recipes that I rotate but these guys have fast become a new favourite. They just have such a good texture and so much flavour. Soft chewy oats, the crunch of peanuts and melted chocolate… I can’t possibly need to say anything else to convince you to give these a shot!
CHIA AND OAT PORRIDGE WITH KIWI, BANANA AND PEPITAS
This is one of those recipes where the whole thing is almost in the title. But it’s very good. Really creamy and tasty with loads of nutrients. It’s also exactly what I need to eat at the moment as work has started again and I all of a sudden need to eat breakfast way earlier and thus stay full for longer. This does the trick.
