Instructions
Place oats and spelt flour in a small saucepan.

Pour over oats and mix through.

Rinse oats in the morning to remove the sour tang of whey, yoghurt.
Add oats back into saucepan with 1 cup of filtered water and pinch of salt.
Simmer porridge until cooked, around 5 minutes.
While porridge is cooking grind up linseeds.
Once cooked mix through linseeds and swirl of butter, ghee or cream.
Serve topped with sweetener ( optional - I find the fruit adds enough sweetness), banana, berries, nuts and seeds and a good shake of cinnamon
