My own experience when first changing over to LCHF 10 months ago was I found a recipe of cream, oatmeal, nuts and berries very filling and it did ease my break from 40 years of sugar addiction until my palate got used to the rewards of keto food. I haven't eaten oatmeal porridge for 7 months now I savour black pudding and eggs soft cooked in 50 grams of butter.
The recommendation to keep the butter separate from the whipped cream in this porridge is interesting as it gives the porridge a unique flavour and makes it an easy way to eat chia seeds. I will be trying this out.
It's 0 gram. I guess Keto "Porridge" would be a better name. ;)
I added crushed walnuts and some rasberrys. Very good. A keeper.
Oats is still carbs with 100g = 64 and chia are not at 100g = 5.
I use chia and hemp seeds and top with some little toasted almond flakes. It's my favourite through the autumn and winter, especially as there's an endless supply of cream in our house (My dad makes his own butter).
