11 Recipes For World Porridge Day. So, I am trying to get all focused on getting fit again and my downfall is having sweet things for breakfast.

Once I get back into a regular exercise routine, I usually eat more healthier too.

Porridge with syrup, porridge with fruit and nut, porridge with jam, porridge with chocolate spread you name it I eat it!

I often make up healthier versions of porridge up when I am back on my fitness mission but also love the unhealthy versions too!

When I have sugar for breakfast I find I have a sugar craving all day long. Then when I have more sugar I eat more and more sugar!!

To avoid eating sugar, I like to fill up on porridge, fruit and nuts so not getting a sugar boost first thing. This way I am also fuller for longer and I am not snacking on other bits and bobs.

One of my favourite healthier porridge breakfasts is this one with an apple in it. A lot healthier than adding sugar on top!! So happy national World Porridge Day, everyone.

Apple And Maple Syrup Porridge With Pistachio Nuts

11 Recipes For World Porridge Day.

Firstly, Apple And Maple Syrup Porridge With Pistachio Nuts. As the crisp autumn air sets in, there’s nothing more comforting than a warm bowl of apple and maple syrup porridge topped with crunchy pistachio nuts.

This is simply way to make your usual porridge made up with milk topped with a grated apple, bit of lemon juice on the grated apple to keep it fresh, maple syrup and pistachio nuts.

To make this cosy breakfast, start by simmering rolled oats in a pot with a mixture of milk until they become creamy and soft.

While the oats cook, gently grate thin slices of apple into the oats, allowing the apples to slowly cook too and just before serving infuse with the syrup’s rich sweetness.

Once the porridge is ready, stir in a touch more maple syrup for added warmth and sweetness.

Spoon the porridge into bowls, and sprinkle generously with chopped pistachio nuts for a satisfying crunch.

The combination of the soft, spiced apples, the nutty oats, and the buttery pistachios makes this dish the perfect autumnal treat, brimming with seasonal flavours.

So yummy!! My go-to recipe at the minute.

    What a fun post! We don’t use the word porridge much here in the states, so it holds a bit of mystery! I see most (not all) are from oats, which we just call oatmeal. How boring is that!! ? I really only know the word from peas porridge hot, the rhyme!

    What a lovely array you’ve assembled!

    Hi Claire, sugar is my guilty pleasure, it's something I wouldn't dream of giving up, but I do try and control the amount I have. Adding fruits of the forest, honey and cinnamon to my porridge (or yogurt) gives me the sugar kick I need sometimes. You would love it over here, cinnamon is added to everything (not quite, but it's used a lot) and I think the type we use here is much stronger than I remember the cinnamon in the UK being…. I don't think I'd like savoury porridge. Mushrooms on porridge did not look good! … Last week, I made porridge for the first time this winter and I cocked it up big time. It was far too thick and salty, not nice at all. xx
