I came across this recipe in Mark Sisson’s Primal Blue Print cook book.
Primal Cereal:
Time in the Kitchen: 10 minutes
- 1/2 cup almonds slivered or whole
- 1/2 cup pecans
- 1/2 banana
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk or coconut milk
Pulse all ingredients in a food processor or blender until desired consistency is reached. Depending on your preference, the hot cereal can be smooth and creamy or chunky.
Warm cereal in the microwave or on a stove until hot. Add fresh berries and more almond milk or coconut milk to taste.
Here is an option for those that are not 110% Paleo and enjoy some oats!
I am not a huge fan of bananas, so I used apple sauce (that is what I had to substitute instead). I also thought I would throw in a 1/4 cup of oats as well. A made the recipe a little different by cooking the oats and nuts on the stove with some water so it made it easier to blend them together. Once they were softened, I added the apple sauce and cinnamon and blended. The cereal is already hot, so then I added the almond milk. Yummy!
Give it a try and let me know what you think 😉
