Oats Porridge Organic

To make quick yet absolutely scrumptious porridge bring 1 cup of these oats to a gentle boil in 2 cups of liquid – either half-half water and milk, or just milk of your choice. Add a pinch of salt and a little honey, maple syrup or coconut nectar to taste. Cook, stirring on a low to medium heat for 2-3 minutes to create irresistible, creamy porridge and serve topped with chopped nuts and dried fruit. You can also cook these oats in the microwave using the same quantities of liquid; cook on high for 1 minute, stir, then cook again for another 30-60 seconds.

Organic porridge oats are great in smoothies and can be used in home-made muesli; either natural Bircher style or oven-toasted in honey, maple syrup or apple juice. Porridge oats are delicious in home-baked bread and their softer texture is perfect for muffins or biscuits.

They are fabulous with shredded coconut and maple syrup as an irresistible fruit crumble topping – try pear and rhubarb, apricot, or raspberry and apple. Use them in muesli bars or raw food snacks and desserts including energy balls and pressed pie-bases. These oats can also be used to make fresh oat milk.

To make oat milk, simply soak (and a little shredded coconut if you like) with a pinch of salt, in cold water (1:6) for 6 hours or overnight. Sweeten to taste, with a little honey or coconut nectar, blend for 2-3 minutes.

Strain through a clean cloth, squeezing the oats, and refrigerate in an airtight container. Oat milk will stay fresh for several days, just shake if separated.
