Healthy Chocolate Oatmealporridge Recipes

Steps:

• Put all the dry ingredients in a bowl and stir to mix (making sure any lumps in the cocoa powder and broken up).
• Add the water and microwave on high for 1 minute 30 seconds (make sure it doesn't overflow!).
• Stir and leave for at least a minute, then if you like it thicker, microwave for another 30 seconds or so until it's the texture you like (but be really careful it doesn't overflow), remembering it will thicken up a bit as it cools. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Combine 1st 4 ingredients, cook on high in the microwave for 1 1/2 mins stirring after 1 minute.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 325. Place oats on a baking sheet and toast until lightly browned, stirring once (about 4 to 6 minutes). Let cool to room temperature. (If you are in a hurry you can skip this step and use plain old fashioned oats, however the toasting adds flavor!).
• 2. Place 1.5 cups of oats in a food processor and blend/pulse until they reach a rough, flour like consistency.
• 3. Mash bananas well, they should have no lumps. I use my mixer to mash them before adding the other wet ingredients.
• 4. Add eggs, honey, milk and vanilla. Mix to combine.
• 5. Add dry ingredients (including both ground and unground oats) to wet ingredients and mix until just incorporated. Allow these to sit for 10 minutes to soak the oats.
• 6. 7. Fold in approximately 1/2 cup chocolate chips, if using.
• 8. Scoop into muffin tin, lined with muffin wrappers (makes 14 muffins). You can spray the bottom of the liners lightly with spray oil to make the muffins easier to remove from the wrappers.
• 9. Sprinkle muffin tops with reserved oats and remaining 1/2 cup chocolate chips, press down lightly.
• 10, Bake at 350 for about 20 -23 minutes, a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin should come out clean.

Steps:

• in the morning add the other 1/2 cup water and bring to a boil, stir in cinnamon and simmer about 5-10 minutes until thick and tender, stirring occasionally.
• at the very end turn off heat, crack the egg into the oatmeal and stir stir stir until smooth and creamy. the heat from the oats cooks the egg.
• add the sweetener of your choice and top with fruit or nuts if you want.
