1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1 tablespoon coarsely chopped dry-roasted almonds

2 teaspoon sunflower seeds

1/2 medium banana, sliced thickly

2 teaspoon pure maple syrup

Method

1.Place oats, soy milk and cinnamon in a small saucepan over low heat, bring to a gentle simmer; cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes or until mixture has thickened and oats are tender.

2.Meanwhile, combine nuts and seeds in a small bowl.

3.Serve porridge topped with banana; sprinkle with nut and seed mixture, drizzle with maple syrup.
