Earl grey, lemon and apricot

This is bright and fresh. What a joy to wake up to on a spring morning.

Serves 1

Ingredients:

Porridge

  • 1 Earl grey tea bag

  • 1/2 cup boiling water

  • 1/2 cup oats

  • 1/2 cup milk

  • 1 tsp honey

  • pinch of salt

Topping

  • 3 tbsp plain yoghurt

  • zest of 1/4 lemon

  • 1/2 tsp honey

  • 4 dried apricots, chopped

  • 8 almonds, chopped

(Notes on substitutions found below the method)


Method:

  1. Pour the boiling water over the tea bag and leave to stand for 5 minutes.

  2. Remove the teabag and add the water to the rest of the porridge ingredients. On the hob: place ingredients in a saucepan, bring to boil and simmer for 4-5 minutes stirring regularly to make it rich and creamy. In the microwave: place ingredients in a microwave proof bowl, then microwave on high for 1 minute, give it a good stir for 30s minutes. Put back in the microwave for 2-3 minutes stirring regularly to make it rich and creamy.

  3. Mix the yoghurt, lemon zest and honey together. Dollop the yoghurt mixture on the porridge and sprinkle with apricots and almonds.

Notes and substitutions:

  • Oats: I use regular porridge oats, but you can use any type. Just adjust the cooking time.

  • Milk: Any milk works, including soy and nut milks.

  • Cocoa powder: You can also use cacao powder.
