25 min

  • Step 2

    Add the almonds, cashews, coconut flakes and desiccated coconut to a food processor.
    Step 2
  • Step 3

    Blend together to form a chunky crumb consistency.
    Step 3
  • Step 4

    Add the almond milk to a medium saucepan and add the blended nut mixture. Leave this to soak for 10 minutes so that the nuts absorb the milk.
    Step 4
  • Step 5

    Turn the heat to low so the porridge begins to warm and stir through the coconut oil, cinnamon, sweetener and additional milk to taste. Heat through gently for 10 minutes but do not boil.

    Serve with additional sweetener, cinnamon or coconut oil to taste.

        It does say at the very top, 1 servings ( per bowl), 3.5 oz (100g). Hope this helps.

      Does anyone know if you can batch make the dry mix and use it for other times?

        If you decide to do that, refrigerate or freeze the fry mix so the exposed oils don’t start to mold.

        Hi, I haven't tried to keep the dry ingredients for a long period of time so unfortunately I couldn't say for sure.

      Would like to know actual serving size. I had approximately (?) 1/2 serving and didn’t add the sweetener. I added 4 small strawberries instead. Very good recipe for my taste.

          Cashews are not really keto-friendly...

            Isn't this listed as low carb? I didn't see anything about keto

          how can you cut some carbs from this Recipe without cutting the serving size??

          • recipewriter

            recipewriter 6 years ago

            Hi, you could swap the cashews for macadamia nuts as these are lower in carbs. Hope this helps.

          How well does this keep if to make in batches?

          • recipewriter

            recipewriter 7 years ago

            Hello! I have not tried this in batches so can't say for sure how it would work. I think you would want to make it fairly fresh though once the nuts have been soaked as I don't think they would keep very well!
