Ingrédients
- 1/2 pouch of Merchant Gourmet Whole Chestnuts
- 1 cup of oats
- 1 of almond milk
- 2 tablespoon of almond butter

- ½ teaspoon of ground ginger

FOR THE STEWED APPLES
TOPPINGS
Méthode
- With a fork mash the chestnuts until you have a crumbly kind of flour.
- To make the stewed apples simple place the sliced apples and all the spices into a pan with a splash of water. Put the lid on and cook them gently on a medium-low heat for about 20 minutes until they are soft but still keep their shape. Add the date syrup and cook for another minute. Remove the pan from the heat and leave it on one side
- To make the porridge: place the oats into a pan with the almond milk and cook them on a medium heat for 5 minutes until most of the liquid has been absorbed. Add the almond butter, the crumbled chestnuts and the cinnamon and stir everything together. Cook for another 5 minutes until the porridge is thick and creamy. Add more almond milk or water if needed.
- To serve pour the porridge into a bowl and add the stewed apples on top. Sprinkle with some chopped pecans and drizzle with more date syrup.
Good to know!
We used stewed apples but you could also try mixed berries such as blackberries, blueberries and raspberries as a topping.

Really great recipe for chestnut porridge, the spiced apples with it are fantastic. I’ve been making this for a couple of years now, it’s a favourite in our household. Thank you!
