Low Carb Almond Porridge
Creamy porridge without rolled oats: ground almonds are gently warmed with milk and stirred until you get a smooth, spoonable breakfast bowl. That keeps this almond porridge low in carbs while still being wonderfully filling. Finish it with toppings like berries or nuts, whatever you fancy.
Ingredients
- almond milk, unsweetened, or any milk you like
- oat bran
- ground almonds or other ground nuts
Instructions
- For the almond porridge, slowly heat the milk in a small pan until it starts to simmer.
- Stir in the oat bran and ground almonds.
- Let the porridge simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring all the time. Then take it off the heat.
- If you prefer a thicker porridge, let it stand for a few more minutes so it can thicken up.

Frequently asked questions
How do I make almond porridge from scratch?
Warm ground almonds briefly with milk or a plant-based drink and keep stirring until the mixture thickens and turns creamy. Sweeten to taste and serve with your favourite toppings.
Is almond porridge low carb?
Yes, because it skips the rolled oats. Ground almonds provide the creaminess with far fewer carbohydrates.
Can I use tiger nut flour or oat bran instead?
Yes, both work well. Tiger nut flour adds a slightly sweet note, while oat bran gives the porridge a bit more fibre.
