Anti-inflammatory Turmeric + Cinnamon Porridge
You will need:
Organic porridge oats
1/2 tsp turmeric powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon
A few cracks of pepper
Pinch of sea salt
Chia seeds (optional)
Maple Syrup or honey to sweeten (optional)
Water
Toppings:
Toasted seeds & nuts - I particularly love desiccated coconut, flaked almonds and omega seeds. Heat up a frying pan on a low heat, add the seeds & nuts and wait for them to start crackling until they turn a nice golden brown.
Berries - I defrost frozen berries in some boiled water, drain them and then mix in with a drop of maple syrup.
Sliced bananas are always a winner in my books!
How to make:
Add a handful of porridge oats to a small saucepan.
Add some cold water (approximately 150/ 200ml).
Place on a medium heat.
Stir consistently and add the remaining ingredients.
Stir until the porridge is bubbling and has reached the consistency you like. You can always add more water if it becomes too thick.
Go crazy on the toppings!
This is a really quick and nourishing meal that is packed full of anti-oxidants and anti-inflammatory goodies.
I hope you enjoy this as much as I do! Especially in the cold winter months when we need a bit more warmth and comfort from our meals!
Much love,
