Porridge With Honey Poached Plums and Walnuts

Porridge is one of my favourite breakfasts for few different reasons. Oats are not only easy to make and delicious but also high in protein and carbohydrates - they take longer to digest, making you feel fuller for longer. Also, because of the fermentable fibre, they are great for your gut health and offer plenty of digestion-boosting benefits. Porridge doesn’t have to be boring and monotonous – it’s all about the toppings!

I love starting my day with a bowl of slowly cooked oats topped-up with my favourite seasonal ingredients with plenty of different textures. Honey poached plums add an extra tangy sweetness to the creamy mixture and the crushed walnuts finish it all up with just the right amount of crunch. Fast, comforting and a simply delicious start of the day.
