Step by Step Instructions
Step 1
Bring the water, oats, salt, and cinnamon to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer for about 20 minutes or until the water has evaporated and the oats are fully cooked. Stir occasionally to avoid burning.
Step 2
To prepare the blackberry jam, add blackberries and water to a saucepan and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes or until blackberries are softened. Remove from heat and set aside.
Step 3
Once the oats have finished cooking, add the vanilla nut milk (or for a creamier porridge, use coconut milk). Bring to a boil for 30 seconds, then remove from heat and add the remaining porridge ingredients, stir well to combine.
Step 4
To serve, garnish porridge with a spoonful of blackberry jam and a pinch of cinnamon. Enjoy!
