Carbs in porridge
The number of carbohydrates in a serving of porridge can vary depending on the type of oats used and any additional ingredients or sweeteners added. Here's a rough estimate of the carbohydrate content in a typical 1-cup (cooked) serving of plain, unflavored oatmeal made from rolled oats has around 27 to 30 grams of carbohydrates.
Almond Milk or Coconut Milk?
Unsweetened almond milk generally contains fewer calories and less saturated fat than canned coconut milk. Almond milk is also usually fortified with calcium and vitamin D, making it a good source of these nutrients. However, coconut milk has a richer, creamier texture due to its higher fat content, which can be desirable in certain recipes or for those who prefer a thicker consistency. When choosing between the two, consider your dietary preferences and nutritional needs.
Ingredients
Just 5 ingredients make this hearty breakfast.
- Coconut milk - canned coconut milk is used but this can be substituted with almond milk.

- Ground flaxseed - use either store bought ground flaxseed or grind flaxseeds fresh for the recipe. This can be substituted with chia seeds.
- Sweetener - we used allulose but any other low carb sweetener can be used.
- Raspberries - fresh or frozen raspberries are used.
