Cacao and Almond Butter Porridge for a cosy and comforting start to the day. You’ll love to wake up to this gluten-free, refined sugar-free + dairy free breakfast.

I love starting my day with porridge this time of year, it’s so cosy and satisfying. I can’t think of anything better then this creamy, chocolatey porridge drizzled with warm almond butter and topped with banana slices and nuts.

It tastes as good as dessert and feels like a real treat to have this first thing in the morning. It’s really filling too and contains a healthy mix, of carbs, fats and protein.

This healthy porridge recipe is full of nourishing ingredients and is gluten free, vegan, dairy free and contains no refined sugar.
