This 1-pot oat and turmeric porridge is perfect for satisfying that craving. This porridge starts with an optional step of the soaking steel cut oats overnight to help improve their digestibility (a step we highly recommend for creamier texture, quicker cook time, and easier-to-digest oats. If you don’t have time to soak, try our Instant Pot Oats method!) The oats are then drained and added to a saucepan where they’re boiled in a blend of water and coconut milk, providing the perfect amount of creaminess. Then a combination of anti-inflammatory spices are added. We like to use our Golden Milk Mix for a shortcut, but you can also add the spices — turmeric, ginger, cinnamon, black pepper, nutmeg (optional), and clove (optional) — individually. Golden milk is an Indian drink with roots in Ayurveda. And turmeric is the star of the spice mix used to make it! This magical spice has been used in India for nearly 4,000 years and has gained popularity throughout the world in part due to its vast medicinal uses.

We like to garnish with pomegranate arils, cashew butter, bee pollen (omit if vegan), and coconut butter to make the porridge even more satiating and colorful. Look at that hue! We hope you LOVE this porridge! It’s:CozyWarmingEasyDeliciousNaturally sweetened& Made with anti-inflammatory spices
