American

banana & peanut butter porridge

The days when I don’t do so well at being an adult, I feel a little beaten. Examples include missing flights, losing keys and spilling dinner on my dresses (which happens far too regularly). Days when I smash being an adult, I know I am winning at life. Examples include paying street performers, packing an umbrella, buying flowers and waking up at 7am on a Saturday morning and making breakfast with extra adult points for sprinkling chia seed on whatever that is. So here it is. A winning Saturday morning decision that warrants a pat on the back for doing really well at life.

banana & peanut butter porridge

Serves 2

Ingredients

1 1/4 cup oats
1 banana, sliced
1tbs unsweetened smooth peanut butter
1 1/4 cup milk of your choice
2tbs chopped cashews – walnuts & almonds will also work
1tbs honey plus extra to serve
1tsp cinnamon
Sprinkle of chia seed to serve – optional

Method

Add all the ingredients together in a small pot. Bring to a gentle simmer over a low heat.

Mush through the banana and peanut butter until smooth and the oats are cooked – around 5 minutes should do. If you prefer a runnier porridge add a little extra milk. Serve with extra honey, banana, cashews and sprinkle over some chia for extra points.

Hey there

This is a collection of tastes from my tables abroad… wherever that may be. I spend my days professionally food writing my nights recipe developing flavours from my adventures.

I am at my happiest when sharing food with my favourite people. I care deeply about nourishing our bodies with goodness. I don’t believe in dieting, I don’t believe in fads, I believe in feeding your body simply with home made deliciousness.
