And what better reason to start baking than leftover porridge? (courtesy of my boyfriend, of course - 'leftover porridge' simply isn't in my vocabulary).
I mixed 2 eggs (but just one yoke) with the porridge (made from almond milk/water and oats), along with some raisins, crushed up honey roasted nuts (around 15g at a guess - these are SO addictive, beware!), a teaspoon of manuka honey, plus 2 tablespoons coconut flour and a quarter teaspoon baking powder. I distributed the mixture into muffin cases (Pudsey ones, no less! God knows how old they are...) and baked on gas mark 4 (350c) for 35-40 minutes, grating some 90% dark chocolate on the tops about 5 minutes prior to removing them from the oven!
This made 8 muffins plus 3 teeny-tiny taster ones (all of which I ate during the baking process because I'm too damn impatient for my own good). I've yet to give them a final verdict as I'm doing that normal thing of waiting till they've cooled before eating...yeah, it's a new thing for me, I know.
Has anyone else any leftover porridge recipes to recommend me?! I always have some leftover porridge in the pan, though when it comes to porridge I usually just have to finish it. Not that you'll ever hear me complain about that - I'm such a massive greedy guts when it comes to porridge in the morning. This morning, however, my stomach could not possibly warrant for 2.5x my regular portion size (which is large as it is...).
Ah, I do love me a nice Sunday recipe - especially when it consists of all my favourite ingredients! Hope you all have a relaxing day, guys :).
