My British husband cooked porridge every morning. He would soak the oats in water overnight, then add a little evaporated milk and fresh blueberries to the pot in the morning. He would stir the porridge with a beautiful spurtle topped with a carved thistle. Whenever I found Lyles syrup in a store, I would surprise him with a can or two. We were married 39 years before he died, and aside from vacations away from home, this is how he started each day.

My favourite is with soy milk, which is not quite as rich as normal milk but also not quite like using water. Depending on my mood I sometimes cook it quicker to have a more coarse porridge or give it time for a smoother one. I also love using different flakes instead of just oat. I have spelt flakes for example that give the porridge a bit of a heartier taste. And mixing up fine and coarse oats for different textures. For flavour I always put it quite heavy amounts of cinnamon, a nice bit of maple syrup, agave nectar or brown sugar(we don't really have golden sryup here). Topped with some kind of fruit, best a quick berry sauce like shown in the video or an apple compote. If I have good fruit at home fresh is perfect of course.

Zoid Burg The oats people use are usually almost 'dead' because they have been pasteurized. Soaking, fermenting and sprouting is good against phytic acid as far as I know. I soak other grains for 5-12 hours, oat grains are lighter (according to the German Dr. Bruker who was an expert in this field and studied Bircher Benner's muesli) and need less time to soak and be well digestible.

Nimity Tei If you have whole oat groats, you must first flake them by using an oat roller. I let mine fall from the machine (I have one called Flocino) into a dish with some water to prevent oxidation of the flakes. They should soak 30 min. to 1 hour. All of them should be just moist. Don't use too much water. Then add sweet fruits and raw nuts to enjoy it. ;) It is a light meal (you don't feel it in the stomach) but I feel hunger only after 4-5 hours. Feel free to ask more if you need help.

If it's Summer and I can get fresh peaches then I dice one up and throw it in.

Those servings look amazing! For myself in the morning it is as simple as putting 3 tablespoons of whole oats and a cup of milk in a pot, putting the gas on lowest setting on a small burner and take the shower. When done, I simply add any sort of fruit thats in season, some agave sirup for sweetening and stir literally once. I guess the total cooktime is around 10-12 mins, but starting from a cold pot with cold milk. It comes out perfect everytime, takes no time at all to prepare and just tastes absolutely amazing when you mix it up.

I usually have porridge super simple - oats cooked in water with 1/3 of a banana and the rest of it cut up on top once it's done or oats cooked in water with loads of cinnamon and a cut up apple (a healthy apple pie nearly haha), but I used to love having porridge with a medley of frozen berries on top and a big dollop of 100% peanut butter until one time I dropped it onto the carpet and haven't been able to bring myself to indulge in it since

I make a savory oatmeal dish boiling the oats in chicken stock ( store bought or home-made but i use the Kirkland brand chicken stock from Costco, it's so tasty with the oats) and then add in any preferred veg and chicken/shrimp, salt and spices to taste and it's soo good, especially if you want something filling but you're trying to lose weight. I've seen this done with soft boiled eggs as well but haven't tried that yet. It's basically a substitute to rice but obviously its a porridge.

I find it better with two parts water one part skimmed milk. Plus I wouldn’t bother with the salt, many people overdo the salt, thinking it is essential but it tastes yuck unless you reduce the salt to a tiny amount, by which time you don’t notice the difference. Thus the need to use salt is a bit of a myth.

I just prepared a beautiful organic steel cooked oat porridge this morning with smooshed banana, broken walnut kernels and Pure Canadian Maple syrup. Steel cooked oats are incredibly healthy and give next level nutty chewiness and texture. I simmer 1 cup of grains for 15-20 minutes in 2.5 cups of water and 1 cup of unsweetened oat milk with a 1/4 teaspoon of kosher salt. It’s so delicious. Love to know what you think if you try this. Stay well 🥰💝

You want to add the salt at the end after the oats have already cooked. If you add it at the start, they won't get as creamy because pentosans - the gum inside the oats that binds with water and makes that creaminess - will not be able to bond with the water, because the salt will bond to it instead. Probably not as big a problem for rolled oats as steel cut but still, salt at the end is better.

+Grace H Me too.... I add chia seeds and coconut and chopped dates. I sweeten with either honey or maple syrup... I prepare it the night before and keep it in the fidge overnight, then take it to work the next day, and then warm it up in the microwave. It doesnt need a lot of cooking as the overnight soaking in milk has softened it. I use almond milk, or sometimes rice milk... I tried soya milk and its way too sour.
