Sticky Date Porridge
A warm comforting hug in every spoonful!
INGREDIENTS
80g oats
1/8 tsp salt
250ml milk (you may need to alter this depending on the consistency that you enjoy)
4 medjool dates, diced
2 Tbsp boiling water
45g protein powder
2 squares of Lindt 70% dark chocolate, grated
30ml sugar free maple syrup
20g peanut butter
METHOD
Place oats and milk in a small pan over a medium heat.
Add salt and stir with a wooden spoon.
Bring to a steady simmer for 5 minutes, stirring as often as you can to give you a smooth creamy porridge. If desired, adjust the consistency by adding a dash of milk or water.
While the oats are cooking, soak two dates in the boiling water and mash with a fork. Just before the oats have finished cooking, stir through the date mix.
Leave the mixture to cool slightly before mixing through the protein powder and diving between two bowls.
Top with the chocolate, sugar free maple, peanut butter, and remaining dates.
Serves Two.
