Creamy Apple and Linseed Porridge
Sweet, grated apples and warm cinnamon melt right into these creamy oats as they simmer on the stove. This comforting bowl relies on natural fruit sweetness and a splash of milk for a rich, satisfying texture. Ground linseed stirs in at the end to add a subtle, nutty depth without changing the classic porridge feel. You'll finish each serving with a spoonful of tangy yogurt to balance the spices perfectly. It's a cozy, nourishing way to kick off chilly mornings.
Ingredients
- 100g/4oz porridge oats
- 2 eating apples, peeled and grated
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon, plus extra for sprinkling
- 500ml/18fl oz skimmed milk
- 2 tbsp ground linseed
- 150g pot probiotic yogurt
Instructions
- 1Combine the oats, grated apples, ground cinnamon, and skimmed milk in a medium saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil while stirring occasionally. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring constantly so the oats don't stick to the bottom of the pan. Cook until they're tender and creamy.
- 2Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the ground linseed. Divide the warm porridge evenly among four bowls, then top each serving with a spoonful of yogurt and an extra dusting of ground cinnamon.

Notes
- Sweetness: Drizzle the finished porridge with a little honey or agave syrup if you prefer a sweeter bowl.
- Prep: Grate the apples right before adding them to the pan so they don't oxidize and turn brown.
- Swap: Use your favorite plant-based milk instead of skimmed milk for a dairy-free option.
