Serves 2
This hearty and wholesome porridge combines creamy rolled oats with a hint of fennel or cinnamon for a warming, aromatic start to your day. A perfect comforting breakfast!
Butter or oil may sound like an unusual item to put on your cereal, but it’s an old European tradition from the era when small opaque bottles of fresh pressed oil were delivered every week by horse and carriage. Try it, and see if you like this way of getting your omega 3’s!
