Nutritious and Delicious Recipe of the Week: Fuel Your Body and Your Workouts With Faux-Oatmeal! 

It’s #what’scookinWednesday again, and in the Fit1 kitchen we are testing out a few new recipes to keep us warm, toasty, satisfied and ready for our workouts on cold winter mornings! This recipe for “raw” (but warm!) Apple Pie Chia Seed Porridge takes about 10 minutes to prepare, but it’s worth it! Wake up a few minutes early tomorrow morning, turn on some relaxing music, blend up some breakfast, and then take a few moments to relax and enjoy your delightful and oh-so-healthy breakfast!

Ingredients
  • 120ml (1/2 cup) almond milk
  • 2 tbsp chia seeds
  • 2 tbsp almond butter
  • 3 dates, roughly chopped
  • 2 tsp coconut sugar, depending on sweetness desired
  • ½ tsp mixed spice
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 green apple, peeled and cored
  • Chopped pecans
Directions
  1. Mix all of the ingredients, except the chopped nuts, in a blender until thick and smooth.
  2. Transfer to a saucepan, stir and heat gently until warm. If you’re on a raw food diet, you can use a thermometer to ensure it doesn’t heat above 40c (110f.)
  3. Serve with chopped pecan nuts and grate over some fresh apple (I used leftover apple from the core.) Enjoy!
