Substitutions and Tips:
- You can use any healthy low-carb sweetener but I prefer the subtle sweetness of roasted almond butter and coconut without additional sweeteners.
- You can make this recipe nut-free by using sunflower seed butter or coconut butter instead of almond butter, sunflower or pumpkin seeds instead of walnuts, and water instead of almond milk.
Step-by-step
Roughly chop the walnuts. Place the hemp seeds, chopped walnuts and flaked coconut into a hot pan and roast for 1-2 minutes or until fragrant.
Toss a few times to prevent burning. When done, transfer the roasted mix into a bowl and set aside. In a small saucepan, mix the coconut milk and almond milk and heat over a medium heat. Once hot (not boiling), take off the heat. Add the almond butter and coconut oil.
Add chia seeds, turmeric powder, black pepper and Erythritol (optional). Mix until well combined and set aside for 5-10 minutes. Add half of the roasted mix from the bowl.
If using cinnamon or vanilla instead of bee pollen, mix it in with the turmeric powder.
Spoon the porridge into serving bowls and top with the remaining roasted mix. Finally, sprinkle with bee pollen.
Serve immediately or store in the fridge for up to 3 days.
To keep the porridge crunchy, keep the roasted mix and bee pollen in a separate container at room temperature and add to the porridge just before serving.

I can't wait to try this. I've been looking for quick morning alternatives to eggs and avocado, and this looks like it will do the trick. I wanted to ask what the difference is between using flaked and shredded coconut, besides the size. I notice that you tend to use the former in your recipes. I'm sure that using shredded is fine, but I wondered if it's just personal preference or if there's a reason one would work better than the other.
Thanks your your site! I learned so many useful tips and tricks, and the recipes I've tried have been really good. You've made starting and keeping on keto a lot easier!
Thank you for your kind words, Becca! You can use either in this recipe. I prefer flaked because it makes the porridge a little more crispy and gives it more texture but that's a matter of preference 😊
FANTASTIC!!! No sweetener required!
OMG this is SO GOOD! I made this last night with pecan halves and omitted the sweetener, and had it this morning reheated for breakfast... Divine! The portion size doesn't look like much and I thought I might still be hungry after, but not at all. This is utterly lush and sating and I can't wait to have the second portion for breakfast tomorrow. Thanks so much for this! Btw I assume I can use any nut or seed butter? I'm out of almond butter but I have macadamia nut butter, sunbutter, cashew butter, hazelnut butter and brazil nut butter! (Er... What can I say, I love my nut and seed butters 😊) Could you please provide the macros for these substitutions? Thanks!
Thank you Anu! Yes, you can definitely use any other nut butters, just avoid cashew butter, as there's 16 g net carbs in just 1/4 cup as compared to almond butter that is less than 4 g net carbs. If you really want to use it, try to only use more than 1-2 tablespoons if you want to keep the carbs low. All the other nut and seed butter substitutions are suitable and will result in a similar carb count.
Hi Martina! I don't have hemp seeds but I really want to make this tomorrow. Do you think I can sub with flax seeds?
Absolutely, flax is perfect for making porridge! 😊
I love turmeric with eggs and bacon. Looks like based on the comments I need to add a little pepper too 😊
Yes, it's been added to the list of ingredients - just a pinch will be enough 😊
Looks like an interesting recipe but if you're going to go to the bother of using turmeric specifically for it's anti-inflammatory properties you should add pepper to make sure your body can actually use all of it. The fat does increase bioavailability but the pepper will help further.
It's both turmeric and bee pollen. Yes, you're right, black pepper significantly improves absorption of turmeric and I'll add a note. I did mention this in my turmeric milk recipe but forgot to add it here 😊 Thanks for spotting that! Keto Golden Turmeric Milk
This porridge was so delicious and much better than oats. I just used a few drops of stevia and it was so good!
Definitely going to try this recipe out! I found a few online that I was not a big fan of, but this recipe looks great. Thanks for the share!
