Method
- 01
Cook the oats, chia seeds and chocolate shake powder with water in a saucepan over a medium heat for 8-10 minutes, stirring often. Add a little extra water as it cooks if you like a looser, creamier porridge.
- 02
At the same time, place the cherries in a small saucepan with a generous splash of water, enough for them to gently poach. Cover and cook until they soften. Remove the lid and let the liquid bubble for a few minutes so it reduces to a light syrup.
- 03
Once the porridge is thick and creamy, spoon it into a warm bowl. Serve with the yoghurt alongside and top the porridge with the warm cherries and their syrup.
- 04
A small pinch of sea salt brings out the flavours.
