almond milk porridge
Nutty Bruce has partnered with LEON to launch the first porridge that’s made with activated almond milk on the UK high street
Customers will be able to purchase two activated plant-based porridges that are made with Nutty Bruce Activated Almond & Coconut M*lk: a new Pear & Ginger Seasonal Porridge (RRP: £2.95) and the Ruby Red Porridge (RRP:£2.95).
Activated almonds are nuts that have been soaked in fresh filtered water for 12 hours to start the germination process. Germination reduces the phytic acid in almonds and this increases the absorption of the nutrients when consumed – in this case, in porridge.
The LEON Pear & Ginger Seasonal Porridge is created with slow-cooked organic Scottish porridge oats that are cooked with Nutty Bruce Activated Almond & Coconut M*lk and are topped with poached baby pears, ginger curd, crystalised ginger and a granola crumble, which promises to help people feel satiated for a little longer in the morning.
The LEON Ruby Red Porridge is made with Nutty Bruce Activated Almond & Coconut M*lk and is topped with a Ruby Red compote that is made with a natural prebiotic fibre made from chicory root.
Erica Molyneaux, Head of Food at LEON, says: “Introducing activated porridge is a natural step for us as we continue to make food that tastes good and does good. We were the first restaurant brand to offer porridge in breakfast menus on the high street and we want to continue giving guests dishes that excite them. It’s also really important to us to offer seasonality in our menu, and our new Pear & Ginger Seasonal Porridge is a warming start to cold autumnal mornings.”
