What do you put on your porridge?

[Lostinbooksandcoffee]

In my house, it's officially porridge season

I normally have it with blueberries and almonds, or banana (and sometimes banana, walnuts and maple syrup when I'm feeling indulgent!)

Any other ideas? What do you add on yours? Only thing I wouldn't like is chocolate as it's too sickly first thing in the morning.

Black treacle

Pinch of salt for me. blueberries and nuts for DP

Agave syrup
Blueberries
Stewed fruit

Butter and sugar

Sultanas. Though am going to try a few of the suggestions above now, some sound delicious!

Love porridge in the morning, all year round.

Always mix in raisins and pumpkin Seeds.

Toppings vary depending on season. We grow our own berries so use raspberries, strawberries, blackberries etc at time. Otherwise chop up an apple to go on top.

A tiny bit of golden syrup or homemade spiced elderberry cordial for sweetness.

Nothing ! It's sweet enough if made with milk.

Berries are the most common (blueberries are my fave), other options are fruit purée, jam, raisins, cooked apples and cinnamon, or a sprinkle of sugar,

Honey... honey honey ho-ney!

Brown sugar, or cinnamon and banana.

Or all 3!

Peanut butter and sultanas

Or plain old banana 😁

Plain old jam for me ☺️

Stewed fruit ( currently plums) or a spoonful of home made jam or chunky marmalade

Sometimes chopped banana and sometimes stewed apple with cinnamon

Berries- ideally raspberries, blackberries or blackcurrants. sainsburys or Waitrose frozen red fruit mixes if the stash in the freezer has run out.
Need to think about using bramleys on porrige - I am dealing with a mountain of windfalls and have run out of friends to palm them off on.

I had porridge at a hotel by Loch Fyne - I had it with double cream and golden syrup. There was also a bottle of whisky by the porridge pot, for anyone who fancied a wee dram on theirs - I decided not to try this.

Banana

Porridge oats, splash of cold water, 3 dessert spoons of goats milk yogurt, grapes cut in halves or thirds, banana, sliced.
Couldn’t eat hot porridge, the smell is too offputting but this cold variant is delicious.

Just cinnamon. No sugar or salt.

Crunchy peanut butter, raisins and honey!

Nutella

Golden syrup in the bottom of the bowl and the hot porridge on top. The syrup goes runny and I then stir most of it through but leave a good blob at the bottom to eat on its own when I've finished the porridge 😋

Oats, sultanas, pumpkin seeds, powdered ginger and cinnamon, all soaked in soya milk overnight in the pan, then cooked in the morning. The sultanas go so lovely and plump.

I hardly ever make it but now I’m thinking of setting it up for tomorrow!

Cinnamon
Skyr yogurt/0%fat Greek style yogurt
Berries
Pears
Peanut butter
Seeds and nuts
Frozen berries

Banana with a drizzle of honey for me. Delish
