Chocolate porridge is the easiest and tastiest breakfast recipe you'll ever make. Unbelievably creamy, with chocolatey flavor oatmeal porridge with plenty of delicious toppings will set the tone for the upcoming day. Start your breakfast the right way!
½cupcoconut milk, if you want your porridge extra creamy don't skip this, but it's optional
1-2tablespoonhigh-quality cocoa powder
⅔cupoats gluten-free if desired
½teaspooncinnamon
1teaspoonsalt
1tablespoonmaple syrup or honey
toppings of your choice
¼teaspoonvanilla extract
INSTRUCTIONS
Add the milk to a pot and bring to a simmer. Add in the oats and a teaspoon of salt and cinnamon.
Cook, stirring occasionally for the porridge not to stick to the bottom of the pot. Stir until the oats are creamy and have absorbed the liquid, about 5-8 minutes.
Add a little more liquid if needed. I usually add more because I like more liquid-y looking porridge.
Stir in cocoa powder, maple syrup (or leave it to drizzle on top later), vanilla, and coconut milk. Remove from the heat and cover for 2 minutes.
Transfer to your favorite serving bowls and decorate with plenty of toppings, butter, pear butter, peanut butter, fruits and more.
NOTES
Coconut milk - if you want your porridge extra creamy don't skip this, but it's optional.Toppings - My favorite toppings for this recipe are: raspberry or blackberry jam/marmalade, sliced banana, dark chocolate chips, warm peanut butter, almond flakes, and dried raspberry sprinkles.
