If you love porridge but don’t always have time in the mornings to sit down and enjoy a bowl, then these muffins are for you!
“Porridge on the go”, if you will. These moist, oaty muffins are subtly sweetened with coconut sugar (a low GI sugar with a caramel flavour) but you can also use brown sugar or a sugar substitute in it’s place.
They’re low fat, high fibre and high protein making them a really healthy breakfast option.
