Warm Chia Porridge With Berry Compote & Toasted Coconut
INGREDIENTS⠀
2 tablespoons white chia seeds (or use the standard black ones) @rawvibrantliving
1 to 1.5 cups dairy-free milk - I used Almond & Macadamia (see my website for my homemade nut milks)
Optional extras - if using shop-bought milks try adding some cashew nut butter to make it creamier ⠀
Also try adding ground cinnamon or vanilla power
For the compote
Small handful mixed frozen berries ⠀
For the toasted coconut flakes ⠀
2 tablespoons coconut flakes/chips ⠀
METHOD ⠀
Heat the oven to 180c. Place the coconut flakes in a dish and toast in the oven for 5 minutes. ⠀
Place the chia and milk in a bring and bring to a simmer slowly, mixing to prevent clumps. I use a mini whisk. Then turn down heat to warm through for about 10-15 minutes until the chia expanded and soft. ⠀
Meanwhile place the berries in a small pan and bring to the boil then turn down to simmer and reduce to a compote. ⠀
Serve the chia porridge with the compote, coconut and some almond butter @sun.and.seed
Tip - to increase protein content try mixing in some protein powder.
