Blackcurrant Porridge

March 23, 2018 by HealthyJon Leave a Comment

As amazing as chocolate protein porridge with peanut butter is, recently I have found myself venturing away from my go to healthy porridge recipes and experimenting with less obvious options. Passion fruit compote on top of warm creamy coconut milk porridge was another winner, but is a recipe for another time. Today I am sharing with you my equally delectable recipe for Healthy Blackcurrant Porridge. Fruity and light this recipe I found really interesting because I was uninspired by the selection of flavours available in my fresh fruit bowl. I therefore went rummaging through my freezer and stumbled upon a bag of mixed frozen berries, I didn’t even know I had. Out I plucked the black currant and here you have one lovely carby breakfast. Enjoy porridge lovers.
