How long would you cook it on the stovetop?
Just to warm it….not really to cook it. 🙂
I just made this and was missing the crunch of oatmeal so I added a handful of almonds with the strawberries. It was delish!
Is that flaked unsweetened coconut or coconut flour?
unsweetened coconut…not flour. 🙂
Is the only thing that is making this an S the cream? If you left that out would it be a full pull or E?
I try to keep all these dry ingredients in the S category as they are fats… or S ingredients.
Can’t wait to try this!
can’t wait to try this! Is that “Sweet blend” the new THM blend?
Yes! It is awesome!
THANK YOU!!!!! I just tried this this morning for my oldest dd and I, and it’s WONDERFUL! Thanks!
Hi Jen. I can’t do oats either.. Not even the so called gf ones… Am pretty sad about that as well! I love a warm porridge for brekky too and as a change from rice porridge I make up chia puddings the night before and have one for brekky… Good idea to set up a dry ingredient jar.. Good time saver..thanks. Healthy option is to ditch cream and sweeteners and definitely the bacon.. All wrong on a whole lot of levels… I use homemade coconut yoghurt ..way better than dairy. Warming up the frozen strawberries is good idea… Will try that!
I hadn’t thought of flax meal…interesting
Jenni
Thanks for this recipe. I really enjoyed it for a change from my usual eggs.
Made this for breakfast today and loved it! I used maple extract and stevia extract with none of the optional ingredients. I topped the porridge with additional coconut and vanilla stevia sweetened 0% Greek yogurt after heating it up. I wound up stirring in the GY for extra creaminess. Yummy and very filling! Thanks for sharing! 🙂
Hi Jennifer,
I wanted to let you know how I have been enjoying the porridge. I buzzed my 1/3 cup portion in my seed grinder for a smoother texture. Last night I put the mix, 1 cup almond milk, 1 tsp. cinnamon, 1 donk stevia and a pinch of salt in a jar and mixed well. This morning I placed the pudding in a bowl, topped it with some warmed-up berries, and a 1/2 scoop protein powder. It was wonder-filled. Filling, nice consistency and tasty!
Thank you for sharing your ideas!! I love that! Maybe I can post it sometime? 🙂
Do you think I could make this with water instead of almond milk (I’d still add the protein powder and cream)? I’m a college student on a budget and sharing a fridge with 5 roommates. Thanks!
I bet that would work just fine. 🙂
Do you know how many net carbs per serving? I tried to do the math and came down to approximately 6 net carbs?
Sorry Ana, I have no idea. I don’t count them.
I made the jar of mix this weekend and have enjoyed it twice since. I am a fan of oatmeal but prefer S breakfasts, and I really enjoy chia! I got my amounts just perfect this morning and used thawed raspberries I keep in the fridge, and it was SO good. I need to remember to add cocoa powder next time. Thanks for the great recipe!
Love, love, love this! I added about a Tbs of homemade apple sauce and some cinnamon. Delist!
Thanks so much.
I just figured out cards and fat grams for half of the dry batch= 1 1/2 c from 1/2 c chia seeds ,1/2 c flax meal , and 1/2 c unsweetened coconut = 64g fat 66g carbs which you only have which has 4 servings . So 1 serving of dry mix is 12.8 g fat and 13.2g carbs that is before you add whey powder – almond milk – cream – and sweet blend .
I don’t see how we can eat this?????
And not be crossing over???
First of all, breathe in deep and exhale. 🙂 Now, did you subtract your fiber to get the net carbs? That’s my first question. This is a very popular, on plan recipe. I’ve been at this for over two years and I admin for THM. I know the plan well. I hope you’ll try this..it’s very very yummy! 🙂
I m sorry I did not. Thank you for helping me with that info.
Blessing.
What do you use to figure out this information (how to figure the fiber, carbs, etc? I would love to see a breakdown as an example with this recipe, if you did not mind. Thank you!
I don’t break mine down to count. I just use low carb ingredients.
Okay two questions….1) will this raise blood sugar? I’m type 2 and an A1C of 8.1 my blood sugar spikes even if it’s oatmeal so I need to check on raising BS. 2) Can I use cashew milk instead of almond – I much prefer the thickness of cashew milk over almond.
No. If you are on THM, an S meal is a low carb meal. It shouldn’t impact your sugars much at all. You could use unsweetened cashew milk.
Okay, thank you. I’m starting to like it – I’ll find out today if it affects my BS as I just put a new battery in my monitor.
Jennifer….thank you, thank you, thank you for such a great recipe! I absolutely love the warm Chia porridge!. My shortcut method is to make up 3 or 4 (1 cup jars)porridges at night, take one out to heat 1 min in microwave. I have fallen in love with Chia and coconut so right now it is my go-to breakfast and my dog loves her teaspoon of the warm porridge as well. She won’t leave me alone until I give her a little bit.
We just had this for breakfast. I used smashed sweetened blackberries and a touch of cream for our topping. This is the first time my husband has said he enjoyed eating anything with chia!! THANK YOU 🙂
I have been eyeing this recipe up for a while now, and since I seem to be doing a lot of “breakfasts for dinner” this week, I think this is dinner on this wet yucky evening. Can’t wait to try it….
It’s very cold here today in Ontario Canada and I was looking for a recipe to warm my insides when I found this one. It really did the trick and is absolutely delicious! Thank you so much for the recipe.
You are welcome! I love that one too! Very filling.
first, let me say the taste of this is fantastic, but i didn’t like the seedy texture so i ground it before using. I put it in the bowl with 1/2 cup almond milk and it sucked it right up so I added another half cup. After heating, it was still really grainy so i tried to blend it — stopped up my nutribullet. added more almond milk. Once i got it blended, omg, this was heavenly. Althou it doesn’t sound it, this was a real recipe find and I’m glad i have mix in the fridge. Just be aware that it may take way more grinding than you anticipate, if you don’t like seedy texture.
Thanks Nita!
JEN!Oh sweet mercy this was so good! I was out of vanilla so used maple flavor instead. Added a sprinkle of cinnamon, pinch of mineral salt (I add that to everything, my adrenals need it!) And a pat of buttah. I was sad when the bowl was empty!
Love the handy mix, too. Thank you so much for this recipe!
Thanks for the encouragement, Dawn! 🙂
This is most definitely a keeper!! I ate this yummy porridge with strawberries and cream this morning. It was AMAZING!! Thanks so much for sharing all of your amazing recipes with us!!
This is the best faux porridge I’ve found for a low-carb diet. It makes a difference if you add some flavors and textures. For a single serving, I add 1 T cocoa and 1 T Swerve, and add 1 T of chocolate whey protein powder AFTER the porridge is hot. (Cooking the protein powder does not turn out well, texture-wise, so it’s usually stirred in after cooking.)
I make a large batch of the dry mix and add the liquids (almond milk, coconut milk from a carton, or a mix, plus a pump or two of Torani’s sugar-free chocolate syrup) at night. Let it sit overnight and the morning is so easy. Just stir it, put it in the micro with some frozen berries (raspberry is the best), and serve it with cream, your choice of milk, and definitely some nuts or seeds. I’ve stirred in chopped almonds, walnuts, or sunflower and pumpkin seeds. All are good.
I like coconut so wanted to try this. Yum. I just made the mix, took 1/3 cup of it and followed the directions. I’m eating it right now. This is really good. Thank you!
I LOVE THIS!!!! I made up a batch and store it in a jar in my fridge! It is now my go to breakfast when I don’t feel like eggs or cooking! Yum Yum Yum! Thank you!
