HOW TO MAKE IT

Remove the saucepan from the heat and let it sit for 2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

05

Divide the porridge into two bowls and top each serving with the toasted sliced almonds.

Chef's Tips

For an even creamier texture, replace half of the almond milk with full-fat canned coconut milk. If you are in a rush, you can prep the dry oats and spices in a jar the night before.
↔

Easy Substitutions

You can use steel-cut oats if you prefer a chewier texture, though you will need to increase the cooking time and add more liquid. Dried apricots or figs can be used if you do not have dates on hand.

Storage & Reheating

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat on the stove with a splash of milk to loosen the consistency.
