Gingerbread porridge with toasted seeds & mixed berries By Eve Kalinik

Ingredients:

  • 1 sachet of Bimuno 
  • 40g jumbo oats
  • 250ml unsweetened almond milk (or any other milk of your choice)
  • 1 tbsp smooth almond butter
  • 1 tbsp ground flaxseed
  • 1 tbsp pumpkin seeds
  • 1 tbsp sunflower seeds
  • 1 tbsp honey (ideally Manuka) - swap for maple syrup for vegan version
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp ground ginger
  • 1/8 tsp ground allspice 
  • Pinch of ground nutmeg
  • Pinch of ground cloves
  • Pinch of black pepper
  • Pinch of sea salt
  • Handful of frozen mixed berries (approx 50g)

Buy Bimuno

Method

  • Take the berries out of the freezer and place in a small bowl so they can defrost slightly.
  • In a small frying pan add the pumpkin and sunflower seeds and on a medium to high heat toast for around 3-5 minutes shaking the pan occasionally until they turn golden and give off a rich toasty fragrance. Place to one side while you make the porridge.
  • Place the oats, milk, almond butter, flaxseed, Bimuno and the spices as well as the salt and pepper in a saucepan. Bring to the boil and gently simmer for around 5-7 minutes until the milk has been absorbed - timing can differ between oats so just keep stirring and checking. Take off the heat and stir through the honey and mix well.
  • Transfer to a bowl and add the berries and the seeds. Add an extra drizzle of honey if you wish, and if you are feeling even more decadent, some honeycomb. Serve warm.
