This Vegan Carrot Halva is based on a popular Indian dessert called gajar ka halwa. It resembles a sweet rice pudding or rice porridge. For this carrot porridge, grated carrots are cooked very slowly, until you get a mushy, porridge-like consistency. Carrot halva is traditionally made with milk, ghee and cream. For my Vegan Carrot Halva I have used coconut rice milk and coconut oil instead of dairy. It tastes absolutely amazing served warm with a generous scoop of ice-cream and some roasted almonds and coconut flakes on top. Read More

This Three Grain Cranberry Porridge is a real treat. It’s sweet and warming. Cooking the grains in apple juice gives them a beautiful sweet flavour, like apple compote. The tart cranberries become soft, plump and sweet when cooked in the porridge. I eat this on a morning that I have a little more time on my hands and can really take my time for breakfast. If you don’t have much time on your hands, you can also ‘cook’ the grains and cranberries overnight by adding the grains to a bowl with the water and apple juice.Read More

Copenhagen is the place to be for food lovers. You can get amazing food almost everywhere. If you are looking for the best places to try out porridge or granola in Copenhagen, there’s two places you must visit, Granola and Grød. I fell in love with the wholesome and hearty breakfast served at Granola in Vesterbro. And Grød, a cosy porridge bar in Norrebro, inspired me to start making my own granolas and porridge mixes, even selling them at The Sustainable Food & Art Marketplace in Amsterdam.Read More

At Bakers and Roasters they serve wholesome, hearty dishes, clean food, excellent coffee and lovely fresh juices. The place looks healthy too. As you are sitting down for breakfast, crates of fresh fruit and vegetables are staring back at you and there’s always someone behind the counter juicing fresh fruit and vegetables.

This Blueberry Quinoa Porridge is a delicious and healthy gluten-free breakfast option. Gluten is a protein most commonly found in wheat and other grains, such as barley, rye and spelt. If you’ve ever tried to avoid gluten, you know how hard it is to find great substitutes in your local store. Most gluten-free breakfast cereals are loaded with sugar and expansive. If you are struggling with gluten allergy, intolerance, or sensitivity, making your own is worth your while. Read More

This blueberry banana rice porridge is a delicious and super healthy breakfast option. This is what I am living on in the morning these days, when it’s below freezing point. I get cold very easily and don’t enjoy walking into a cold and icy living room in the early morning. But this breakfast porridge is what gets me going. There’s something particularly nurturing and loving about preparing this for myself on a cold morning. It warms and wakes me up instantly. Read More
