Apple and Walnut Porridge

For those cold mornings when you crave a comforting breakfast, I recommend the delicious apple and walnut porridge (at least for me).

The apple porridge is very simple but completed with fruit and proteins and good fats, in this case walnuts, it becomes a complete breakfast that keeps you full until lunch.

These days I am talking about breakfasts and after the cooked quinoa pancakes, the apples with cream and the ricotta pie, today we prepare this porridge in a glass.

To prepare it even faster, you can soak the porridge in the plant-based drink the night before so you just have to heat it, if you have cooked porridge you can use that or otherwise in 3 minutes in the saucepan until it boils your porridge is ready. If you have large flakes, give them a nano second of blending and they are cooked in a minute.

I leave you other simple breakfasts that you can prepare quickly:

FAQ (Questions and Answers)

  • Can I use other types of cereal flakes?

    Of course, barley flakes, buckwheat flakes, or spelt flakes are great, try them.

  • Can I not cook the apple?

    Sure, but then I recommend softer fruit like kiwi or pear, and let the porridge cool a bit.

  • Can I prepare the porridge the night before?

    Certainly, pour the porridge and apple, but for the yogurt and walnuts, I recommend adding them at the last minute.
