Blueberry & Coconut Porridge

Another bowl of porridge... But I'm not complaining here!

Porridge is my favourite food as it's versatile, being sweet or savoury and tastes incredible at any time of the day.

Today I have another scrumptious flavour variation for you; Blueberry & Coconut. This recipe is quite classic with a creamy texture and cinnamon undertones.

​Enjoy!
