Vanilla Coconut Porridge

A yummy coconut porridge that is perfect anytime of the day, but is especially great for breakfast. It’s dairy-free, sugar-free, nut-free and gluten-free. Wow, there is nothing better to start the day!

This really is the perfect richest breakfast, especially for those following a strict diet. With only a handful of ingredients, you’re finally able to steer away those midday cravings and horrible porridge boxes found in supermarkets.

Our porridge is a good reminder of the taste of Ready-Brek…which for many is the perfect breakfast anytime of the day, month or year, especially winter and autumn.

It also looks very similar in appearance to Ready-Brek, but all without the nasty ingredients and is obviously much healthier.

COCONUT PORRIDGE TIPS:

Our porridge is easy to burn or overcook, the only way around this is to cook it in a non-stick saucepan on a very low setting and stir at all times. We have assessed this porride as moderately difficult because children need to be supervised if they’re helping and it requires someone to watch over it in case it starts burning.

Most children particularly love chocolate instead of vanilla flavours. If that’s you or your child, just add some cocoa powder until your happy with the flavour. It’s the ideal heartwarming keto porridge and the most filling breakfast invented, which makes it an ideal food source before going to school or work.

If your diet permits, try adding some different fruits, stewed apple, a little banana, few chopped nuts, a dollop of Vanilla Coconut Yogurt, or mix and match.
