Alpro Oat Original is another one of my favourites from this fabulous brand, so I was delighted when I was asked by Alpro to create some porridge recipes using this drink.
I was sent a lovely little hamper with some items to get me started with this challenge including a carton of the Alpro Oat Original.
The first recipe I created was a warming cinnamon porridge, topped with toasted seeds and cranberries and a drizzle of runny honey.
Alpro Oat Original Cinnamon Porridge Ingredients
- 50g porridge oats
- 350mls Alpro Oat
- ½ tsp of ground cinnamon
- 1 tbsp mixed seeds (I’ve used sunflower and pumpkin) toasted
- ½ tbsp dried toasted cranberries
- A drizzle of runny honey to finish
Alpro Oat Original Cinnamon Porridge Method
- Place the Alpro Oat into a medium size saucepan with the porridge oats.
- Add the cinnamon and stir well.
- Bring to the boil and then simmer for 4-5 minutes.
- Meanwhile toast the mixed seeds and cranberries in a non-stick pan.
- Place the porridge into a bowl.
- Top with the toasted mixed seeds and cranberries.
- Drizzle with honey.
Enjoy!

I don’t drink dairy so Alpro is my favourite and number one brand for plant based alternatives.
My fridge is full of their products because I know they taste fabulous and I can pretty much use them in any of my recipes!

By mixing Alpro Oat Original with jumbo oats then adding a few healthy ingredients and toppings I know I’m giving myself the best start to the day.
