A simple warming coconut flour porridge for quiet mornings. This low carb breakfast cereal comes together in minutes providing a fast keto, grain-free breakfast option.

It’s New Years morning and while much of the world is sleeping-in after last night’s festivities, I am awake and contemplative. It’s been a while since I’ve had time to reflect on my life, my family and what I want.

For many years school work was a priority, then marriage and work. Soon, readying a home for a baby took precedence and my quiet days tumbled into one another; an endless cycle of sleep deprivation, feedings, bottles and dishes, diapers, smiles and tiny clothes.

The kids are growing and both attend school during the week. I am alone in the house again – enjoying the solitude and the company of my own thoughts. The blog keeps me busy. There’s shopping, cooking, taking photographs and writing posts until the children come home in a flurry of excited tales about who did what at school and what’s for snack, followed by homework and then dinner. Life moves so quickly sometimes I forget to breath.

But currently it’s quiet in the house and I have this simple bowl of coconut flour porridge – and time to enjoy it.

Happy New Year Friends…

The recipe for this low carb and coconut porridge is simple in both its ingredients and procedure. Coconut flour and flax combine with an egg to produce a hot cereal that resembles cream of wheat in texture with a mild coconut flavor. I enjoy it with brown sugar substitute (Sukrin Gold), butter and cream, but to make this Paleo use coconut sugar, honey or maple sugar.

Garnish with any topping; an egg, fruit, nuts, honey – just make sure to calculate the carbs. It is full of fiber and moderate in protein. I think it’s perfect with a cup of coffee and a piece or two of bacon!

Would you rather have a simple quiche for breakfast? Try the Spinach Bacon Onion Quiche or the Spinach Feta Quiche Muffins – they’re crustless.

For an Almond Flour Porridge try this one.
