Paleo Porridge with Caramelized Bananas

4 servings · 10 min prep · 20 min cook

Ingredients

For the porridge

• 1 cup raw pecans
• 1 cup raw cashews
• 2 cups coconut milk
• 4 Medjool dates, pitted
• 1 tbsp chia seeds
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/4 tsp sea salt

For the caramelized bananas

• 2 bananas
• 1 tbsp butter or ghee
• 1 1/2 tbsp maple syrup
• 1/4 tsp cinnamon

For serving

• 1/2 cup chopped pecans
• 1 cup coconut milk

Steps

1. Place the nuts in a large bowl of water and soak for 8 hours or overnight. Soaking the nuts not only helps to make the porridge creamy, it also helps to increase the digestibility of the nuts (so don't skip this step!).
2. Drain the nuts in a colander and rinse under cold water.
3. Place the nuts, 4 dates, 1 tbsp chia, 1 tsp vanilla and ¼ tsp sea salt in a food processor and pulse until finely ground (stopping before you create a nut 1 tbsp butter).
4. Transfer the nut mixture to a pot. Add 2 cups coconut milk and turn the heat to medium-high. Stir until hot and smooth, then remove from the heat.
5. Peel the 2 bananas and slice in half, then again lengthwise.
6. Heat a skillet on medium heat and add 1 tbsp butter, 1 ½ tbsp maple syrup and ¼ tsp cinnamon and stir until combined. Place the 2 bananas in the skillet and cook for one minute, then carefully flip and cook for an additional minute on the other side.
