Warm Chia Porridge

Warm Nourishing Chia Porridge

• Combined prep & cooking time: 12 mins

• Serves 1

Ingredients

• 1 cup milk or unsweetened almond milk (or vegan milk of choice)

• ¼ tsp ground vanilla pods (or vanilla extract)

• ½ tsp cinnamon powder

• ¼ tsp cardamom powder

• ¼ tsp ginger powder

• 1 tsp almond or cashew nut butter

• 3 tbs chia seeds

• 1 tbs pumpkin seeds

• 1 tbs almond slivers

• 1tbs shredded coconut ( omit if high Kapha)

Method

Heat the milk, spices and nut butter over a low heat and stir for about 2-3 minutes, until fully mixed and the nut butter is dissolved. Remove from the heat and stir in the chia seeds.

Leave for 10 minutes to allow the chia seeds to absorb the fluid and thicken.

Place back on low heat to gently warm for a few minutes, then top with seeds and coconut and serve.

If you feel you need it sweeter, you can add ½ - 1 tsp of maple syrup or maple sugar.
