Banana and Blueberry Porridge Bread

Banana and Blueberry Porridge Bread

Flourless banana and blueberry porridge bread. This is much milder, denser and more like a breakfast loaf than your traditional super sweet, gluten-rich banana bread (aka cake). It's a nutrient-dense, gluten-free and lower sugar alternative that can be enjoyed plain or toasted, with butter / chia jam / nut butter / yoghurt.

Blueberry Chia Compote (or Jam)

This quick and easy sugar-free compote is my favourite thing to have with yoghurt as a healthy dessert. By adding the chia seeds you get some additional nutrients, fibre and the gelatinous texture of a jam if you allow the compote to cool. I recommend keeping the cooking temperature low to aim to preserve some of the antioxidant-rich phytonutrients in the fruit.

Lemon Drizzle French Toast

Tired of your weekend pancakes? I can highly recommend switching things up a bit and trying out this lemony French sourdough toast next time you want to treat yourself at breakfast time. I’m a huge fan of lemon drizzle cake, so I thought I would take inspiration from those amazing flavours and translate them into a French toast (eggy bread) recipe for you. While it looks and tastes wonderfully decadent, there is actually no additional sugar in this recipe apart from the natural sugars found in the fruits. You will also be getting a reasonable amount of protein and good quality fat from the eggs, chia seeds and yoghurt.
