Ingredients
Jumbo Rolled Oats | 45 g |
Quinoa | 45 g |
Almond Milk | 350 mL |
Bananas | 2 |
Crunchy Peanut Butter | 35 g |
Salt | 1 pinch |
Blueberries | 120 g |
Vanilla Extract | 1 tsp |
Ground Flaxseeds | 2 tsp |
Step 1
Put the oat flakes and quinoa into a medium pan and pour the almond milk.
Then, mash half the amount of bananas in a small bowl using a fork - even better with a masher for effortless mashing - and add it to the pan. Stir in 20 g of peanut butter and add the salt (1).
Now bring to a boil and then reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until you have a creamy porridge (2).
Step 2
In the meantime, prepare the blueberry compote.
Add the blueberries to a small pan with vanilla and a splash of water. Place over low heat for 5 minutes until the berries start to soften and release their juices.
Step 3
Divide the peanut porridge between serving bowls.
Top with the blueberry compote, the remaining banana, and 15 g of peanut butter.
Sprinkle with flaxseeds for a boost of fibres and plant-based omega-3, essential fatty acids that are known to lower bad cholesterol levels.
Enjoy!
