    If your porridge is too thick, thin it down with additional liquid of choice or water, or serve it up and top it with additional nutmilk/coconut milk or cream.

Recipe Notes

\n
Omit or add more sweetener depending on your taste. You can also add the sweetener by sprinkling it on top of your porridge once you have dished it up.\n
\nTo serve, try topped with cream (coconut cream for paleo/vegan) or low carb nut milk/coconut milk. Additional low carb berries, coconut flakes, granola or sugar free maple syrup also taste delicious served on top.\n
\nRecipe can be reheated in the microwave. You can also make up multiple serves at once and it will keep in the fridge for up to 5 days.\n
\nIf your porridge thickens too much simply add more milk of choice to thin it down.\n
\nIf concerned about staining you can add your blueberries (thawed if frozen) toward the end of cooking.\n
\nIf using Sweet Leaf liquid stevia drops for sweetening you can also use the flavoured versions such as vanilla or coconut.\n\n
