Blueberry Porridge with Honey and Whisky Recipe

Ingredients:

• Oats (use your preferred type)
• Milk or water (enough to cover oats by about 2cm)
• Fresh blueberries (a generous handful)
• 50ml whisky
• 1 tbsp honey

Method:

1. Prepare the Oats:
   Fill a thick-bottomed saucepan with oats and enough milk or water to cover them by about 2cm. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat.

2. Add the Blueberries:
   After a couple of minutes, toss in the blueberries. Stir gently as the porridge cooks, adding more liquid if it starts to thicken too much.

3. Cook Until Ready:
   Continue heating until the oats are soft, and some blueberries have burst, releasing their natural sweetness and colour.

4. Make the Whisky-Honey Sauce:
   Remove the porridge from the heat and spoon it into a bowl. In the same saucepan, add the whisky and honey. Heat gently, swirling the pan to combine the flavours.

5. Serve:
   Pour the warm whisky-honey sauce over the porridge. Serve immediately and enjoy the cosy, rich flavours.

Tip: Pair your porridge with a hot cup of tea or coffee for the ultimate comforting morning!

This wholesome recipe is perfect for chilly mornings when you need a breakfast that warms your soul and satisfies your taste buds. Whether you’re enjoying granola or opting for this indulgent porridge, you’ll start your day off deliciously!
