It makes getting out of bed on a cold morning that little bit easier!

Apple Oatmeal

Can you think of a tastier food combination than apple and cinnamon? They are the perfect match, especially at this time of year. If you are looking to add more fruit to your diet, then this is a good recipe to start with as the apple is shredded and cooked with the porridge, making it nice and soft. It’s a great recipe for toddlers too!

Vegan Porridge

We can sometime get in a bit of a rut with always having eggs for breakfast, but we are trying to eat more vegan meals, so we are having less eggs in the morning and more porridge. It’s super easy to make porridge vegan – just use Blue Diamond Unsweetened Almond Breeze Milk (as it’s deliciously creamy) and swap any honey for maple syrup and skip the yoghurt.

Apple Pie Oats

You know when you wake up craving dessert? No, just me? Well if and when you do, you need to make yourself some of this. All the delicious flavour you get from an apple pie, but vegan and lower in calories.

Now, it’s not just the apples and almond milk that make this breakfast worthy of getting out of bed, but the cinnamon too. Just a little bit adds so much flavour, without adding lots of extra calories and it’s also seen as a superfood.

A whole tablespoon (not that you would want to eat that much in one go) has under 20 calories in it and it is also high in calcium, fibre and magnesium. It is also anti inflammatory and helps to lower cholesterol too. Win!
