Flax & Chia Warm Porridge
This Flax & Chia Warm Porridge is a nourishing gluten and dairy-free breakfast that’s as good for your heart as it is for your taste buds. Packed with nutrient-dense ingredients, it offers a powerful start to your day, supporting your cardiovascular health and overall well-being.
Sesame seeds are a key ingredient in this porridge, and they are known for their heart-protective properties. They help support the cardiovascular system while also benefiting the central nervous system, contributing to better focus and mental clarity throughout the day.
Chia seeds and flax seeds bring a powerhouse of omega-3 fatty acids, essential fats that our bodies can’t produce on their own. Omega-3s help strengthen the blood, reduce bloating, and assist in the elimination of toxins, promoting a healthy gut and body detoxification. These seeds also add fiber and protein, keeping you feeling full and energized for longer.
Cinnamon adds more than just warmth and flavor to this porridge; it helps balance blood sugar levels, reducing energy crashes and cravings. A small amount of cinnamon has even been shown to boost memory and cognitive function, making this breakfast both brain- and body-friendly.
Overall, this Flax & Chia Warm Porridge is a fantastic anti-inflammatory meal that supports digestion, heart health, and brain function. It’s quick to prepare, naturally gluten- and dairy-free, and easily customizable with your favorite toppings like fresh berries, nuts, or a drizzle of honey. Starting your day with this wholesome porridge means you’re fueling your body with essential nutrients that keep you feeling vibrant and balanced.

Yes absolutely, soy milk would be great in this recipe. We'd advise that you have soy milk 3-5 times a week as your body finds its own hormonal rhythm.

Hi, since I am 48, I would like to incorporate soy milk, how often could I use it and could I use it for this recepie? Thank you!

You can use coconut milk.

Being intolerant to nuts, except coconut, what milk can I replace the almond milk with please?

Yes absolutely, but since date sugar is made from dried, ground dates, it won’t fully dissolve, it may slightly thicken the porridge and add a subtle graininess. It may also not be as sweet.

Can you use date sugar instead of stevia?
11/02/25Lara
Of course. Enjoy!

1 tbsp of collagen would be great, you may need to add a little bit more liquid.

I did but I have stevia now so will use that. If I want to add collagen to this, how much should i add? 1 tbsp?

There are free calorie counting apps you can use to track this. Have you tried the recipe without adding maple syrup. The cinnamon and fruit add sweetness.

If you were to add maple syrup to this, how much would you recommend & how much does it adjust the calories, etc. thank you
