If you love porridge but maybe can’t eat oats then this super simple healthy all nuts and seeds porridge is the way to start your day. Just as healthy and filling as the standard oat variety just nuts instead.

All Nuts And Seeds Porridge

Aah porridge, the taste of Scotland. That winter warmer that is the ultimate comfort food and the perfect way to start your day.

My all nuts and seeds porridge is just a wee bit different from our usual traditional plain oats variety and just adds something different to the breakfast table now and then.

Porridge

Porridge has been a staple dish in Scotland for hundreds of years, in fact way back in the day porridge would be made at the start of the week and poured into a drawer (yes you read that right, a drawer, this porridge was on the thick side) and it would just be cut out in portions throughout the week and eaten as it was.

It was often wrapped in paper or cloth and taken out by farm workers for their lunch.

Serving it your way

In Scotland porridge is traditionally served just with salt and water, we’re hardy folks up here. Most folks like it with a bit of sweetener like, honey, sugar or a syrup of some sort and add things like milk and cream or yogurt.

All Nuts And Seeds Porridge

Anyways my all nut porridge while using the word porridge in the title doesn’t actually contain any oats. The word porridge describes a dish of oats, meal or seeds, so you see the good old porridge oats aren’t actually needed.

Go nuts!

Instead I use a mixture of coconut flakes, almond meal, chopped walnuts, flax seeds, pumpkin seeds and chia seeds. Mix in some cinnamon and you have your all nut porridge base.

Then you can add milk (I’ve gone all healthy and used almond milk here and you can even make your own almond milk) and water to cook and toss in a banana and any berries that are lurking in the fridge.

Batch making

I like to make batches of this all nuts and seeds porridge plus my other homemade breakfast cereals so that I have a decent selection on the shelf. Much better for you than those mini celeal multi packs, though they were fun when we were kids.

That’s it, all nut porridge the perfect super easy and healthy start to your day. Looking for more porridge ideas? Then check out these great recipes;
