I wasn’t always a fan of oatmeal. This changed by the time I was an adult, and now I can’t get enough of the stuff! I wouldn’t exactly call this recipe “oatmeal” since it’s a blend of several grains. That’s why we call this recipe Power Porridge. It’s packed with many heart-healthy ingredients, including banana, which adds natural sweetness and energy-boosting properties. This power porridge provides excellent nutrition, supporting immunity, digestion, and overall wellbeing, keeping you full all morning until lunch.

Gather all the ingredients you will need to make this recipe. You'll need almond milk, steel-cut oats, quinoa, honey, unsweetened coconut flakes, walnuts, vanilla, ground cardamom, ground cloves, and sea salt.
Two: Cook the grains
Bring the milk and 3 cups of water to a boil over medium heat in a large saucepan. Add ingredients, stirring continuously over low heat for 30-40 minutes to avoid lumps and achieve a creamy consistency. Cover and let stand for 10 minutes.

When autumn rears her head, I shift breakfast from smoothies to porridge. Adding pumpkin seeds to the porridge provides extra nutrition and a delightful crunch. This is the time of the year when we crave warm comfort foods, and this porridge is just that. No one wants to drink a cold smoothie when the weather gets chilly. Oatmeal is simple and quick to make, leaving you with endless preparation options. On this blog, I cover quite a few takes on oatmeal recipes.
For my family, I triple this porridge recipe in a slow cooker when I have a house full of guests at our farm. I set it up to cook for a few hours on low heat, very early in the morning, and it comes out great, just in time for breakfast.
