Flaxseed Porridge
This is my go-to breakfast that is fast to make, satisfying & is fully customizable.
This is the porridge that I personally load up with all the amazing anti-inflammatory spices

INGREDIENTS:
¼ cup freshly ground flaxseeds
1 cup + 2 tablespoons non-dairy milk
1 medium banana, mashed
pinch ground nutmeg
pinch fine grain sea salt
pinch ground turmeric
pinch ground cinnamon
pinch ground cardamon
pinch ground ginger
for topping: fresh berries, cut up apples, pears, really ANYTHING your heart desires in the moment or whatever yummy fruit you have laying around. Also great with nuts like walnuts, Brazil nuts, almonds etc.
pure maple syrup (if you'd like it a bit sweeter)
Add the porridge ingredients to a medium saucepan and whisk to combine. Heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the porridge comes to a low boil and thickens (about 3-5 minutes). Turn off the heat and transfer the porridge to a serving bowl. Top with your choice of toppings. Enjoy!
NOTES: 2 heaping tablespoons of whole flaxseeds should yield about ¼ cup of ground flaxseeds. There is a noticeable difference in freshly ground versus flax meal when it comes to binding properties. If possible, opt for grinding your own at home for the best texture.
