I love having porridge for breakfast, something about the flavor reminds me of my childhood, and it feels like a warm and comforting hug to my tummy. For the longest time, I would prepare the most basic version using oats, nut milk, as well as a dash of cinnamon and salt, topped with fruits and honey. As my taste buds evolved, I experimented with porridge recipes to fulfill my cravings for a more full-bodied and multi-layered taste experience.
The result? A sweet and spicy concoction that feels like a magic carpet ride to India! The sultry swirl of nutmeg, cloves, cardamom and cinnamon with almond and maple syrup transform plain old porridge into something divine!
