Ingredients
  

Base Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened canned full-fat coconut milk This rich and creamy base gives a luscious feel.
  • 1/4 cup almond milk (or nut milk of choice) Adds a nutty essence; I recommend Three Trees for its homemade taste.
  • 1 pinch pink Himalayan sea salt Enhances the overall flavors beautifully.
  • 1 teaspoon pure maple syrup A hint of sweetness that melds with the spices.
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric Known for its anti-inflammatory properties; adjust based on your preference.
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon A warm, aromatic spice that balances the turmeric.
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom Adds a unique, fragrant note.
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger Offers a slight zing that invigorates.
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg Contributes a warm, slightly sweet flavor.
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cloves Adds depth to the spice blend (optional).
  • 1/4 cup gluten-free sprouted steel-cut oats (or rolled oats) Sprouted oats are easier on digestion.
  • 1/4 cup fresh or frozen fruit Strawberries, raspberries, or blackberries add a fruity burst.
  • to taste drizzle of pure maple syrup or honey For extra sweetness, as preferred.
  • raw plain tahini A nutty addition that enhances flavor and creaminess.
  • unsweetened shredded coconut Crunchy texture that contrasts beautifully with the creamy oats.
  • bee pollen A lovely garnish that adds nutrition and a touch of color.

Method
 

The Night Before
  1. In a jar with a lid, add the coconut milk, almond milk, a pinch of sea salt, maple syrup, turmeric, cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, nutmeg, and oats.
  2. Secure the lid tightly and shake the jar vigorously until all the ingredients are thoroughly combined.
  3. Place the jar in the refrigerator and let it chill overnight.
Morning of Special Delight
  1. In the morning, pour the mixture into a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir often, warming it until thoroughly heated through.
  2. Once heated to your liking, transfer your golden porridge into a bowl.
  3. Get creative with toppings! Add fresh raspberries, a drizzle of tahini, maple syrup to taste, and any extras you adore.

Notes

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The flavors meld beautifully over time. Freeze individual portions for quick breakfasts on the go.
