Indulge in energizing maple syrup, nut, and date porridge for a powerful start to your day!
Ingredients:
  • 60g (1/3 cup) almond kernels
  • 40g (1/4 cup) pistachio nut kernels
  • 4 (about 80g) fresh dates, pitted, roughly chopped
  • 750ml (3 cups) milk
  • 140g (1 1/2 cups) whole grain rolled oats (Lowan Whole Foods brand)
  • Pinch of salt
  • 125ml (1/2 cup) pure maple syrup (Queen brand)
  • Extra milk, to serve
Instructions:
  • 1. Preheat your oven to 180°C. Arrange the almonds and pistachio nuts in a single layer on a baking tray. Roast in the preheated oven, stirring halfway through, for 8 minutes until fragrant and lightly toasted. Allow to cool on a cutting board for 10 minutes, then roughly chop and transfer to a small bowl. Mix in the dates until well combined.
  • In a medium heavy-based saucepan, combine milk, oats, and salt. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 10-12 minutes until the mixture thickens.
  • Serve the porridge in bowls, top with the nut and date mixture, drizzle with maple syrup, and offer extra milk on the side.
