Servings 4

Ingredients

  • 4 cups recently boiled water
  • 1 cup blanched hazelnuts
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil
  • 1 1/2 cups large flake rolled oats gluten free if desired
  • 1/4 tsp salt divided
  • 1/8 tsp grated nutmeg or ground cardamom
  • 1/4 cup Almond butter room temperature
  • 1 pint fresh berries of choice lightly mashed
  • 1/4 cup prepared or homemade granola optional gluten and/or dairy free if desired

Instructions

  • To high-speed blender, add water and hazelnuts. Blend until milky in appearance, about 30 seconds. Using nut milk bag or cheesecloth-lined mesh sieve, strain hazelnut milk into large pot, leaving pulp behind for another use. Stir in maple syrup.
  • In medium skillet over medium heat, melt coconut oil. Transfer 1 Tbsp melted oil to small bowl and reserve; leave 1 Tbsp oil in skillet. Add oats to skillet and toast until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • To hazelnut milk mixture, add toasted oats, 1/8 tsp salt, and nutmeg or cardamom. Bring to a boil, reduce to medium-low, and cook, uncovered, until oats are thickened to your liking, about 10 to 15 minutes. If not eating immediately, transfer to large bowl, cover, and refrigerate for up to 1 week. Reheat on stovetop with a splash of additional water, if needed.
  • To reserved coconut oil (still liquefied), stir in almond butter. Heat mixture briefly to combine if necessary, until smooth and very loose. To almond butter mixture, stir in remaining 1/8 tsp salt.
  • To serve, add hot porridge to bowls and top with berries and a spoonful of almond-coconut butter. Sprinkle with granola for a touch of extra crunch, if desired. If taking to go, pack hot porridge in warmed thermal container and top with berries and almond-coconut butter. Pack granola separately and garnish right before serving, if desired.
