Before going raw, every morning in the cooler months, I'd eat a big bowl of porridge every morning. It was delicious, filling and most importantly lovely and warming! I didn't make this recipe thinking it would be at all alike to it's cooked counterpart, and was very surprised when I had a taste! It looks and has a texture almost identical to cooked porridge! And in my opinion, of course tastes so much better made from fresh, sweet, flavoursome fruits :) I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do! It's loosely based on Rawvana's recipe found here.
Recipe
2 apples 2 apples
4 bananas
4 medjool dates
1/2 tsp lemon juice
1 tsp cinnamon
Mulberries (or other dried/fresh fruit)
Walnuts & pepitas (or other nuts/seeds)
Tahini milk:
1 tsp Tahini
4 tbs water
- in a bowl, mash the bananas with a fork and grate in the apples.
- finely chop up the dates (Tip: wetting the knife and your fingers with water prevents a sticky mess from happening!) and add them in, along with the lemon juice (to prevent browning) and cinnamon and mix everything well.
- to make the tahini milk, add the tahini and water into a small air-tight container and shake vigorously until all of the lumps are gone and a smooth, white liquid forms.
- top the porridge with fruit and nuts and drizzle some tahini milk over the top.
