However, you can still eat a delicious porridge alternative on a Keto diet as long as it is made from low-carb, high-fat ingredients such as hemp seeds, chia seeds, flax seeds, coconut flour, and almond flour. Combining these ingredients makes for a delicious and filling Keto-friendly morning bowl of porridge.
Can you make this Keto porridge ahead of time?
Yes, you can make a big batch of this Keto porridge to enjoy for breakfast throughout the week. Once done making, allow the porridge to cool down. Transfer to an air-tight container. Store in the fridge for up to 7 days. When ready to eat, adjust the consistency with a splash of milk. Add your desired toppings and enjoy.

Ingredients list says 1-1/2 teaspoons of cinnamon but the instructions say tablespoons. Which is it? That’s a lot of cinnamon?

I tried this today and it really did satisfy craving for porridge or even something sweet. Also quite filling. Cold could be lovely desert which could be at least 2 portions.

What is the coconut milk beverage? Is that the same as coconut milk in a can?

The ingredients mention erythritol, the preparation stevia. So, which is best used and how much stevia?
