Gluten-Free Apple and Raspberry Porridge

This naturally sweet and filling breakfast option is a favourite of mine. Especially as it’s so easy to make. You can supplement the milk for a non-dairy option.

Prep time: 2 minutes
Cooking time: 10 minutes
Serves: 1 adult

Ingredients:

240ml Semi Skimmed Milk

40g Gluten-Free Porridge Oats

1 Golden Delicious Apple

1-2 Handful of Raspberries (fresh or frozen work equally as well)

Method:

1. Put the milk and oats in to a saucepan and heat on low-medium.
2. Dice the apple and add it to the pan.
3. Add the raspberries to the pan also. I use about 1 and a half handfuls.
4. Stir constantly, as the porridge starts to form and thicken and the raspberries break up to make a pink sauce that mixes in to the porridge.
5. After roughly 10 minutes (may be a little less), your porridge should be ready. Taste it to check the consistency is right. It should look pink in colour!
6. Serve.

If you try it, let me know what you think!
