Spiced Pumpkin Porridge Squares

Name: Spiced Pumpkin Porridge Squares
Ingredients: 2 cups wholegrain oats (gluten free if required); 1/4 cup protein powder (I use vanilla pea protein); 1 1/2 cups pumpkin puree (fresh is best); 1/2 cup almond, coconut or rice milk; 1 egg; 2 tbsp raw honey or rice malt syrup; 1 tsp cinnamon; 1 tsp ginger powder

This makes a great quick breakfast during the week when you are time poor. The addition of protein powder will give it the added protein boost. Pumpkin is a good source of antioxidants particularly vitamin A which is essential for vision and skin health.

Recipe Notes

Get creative and change the spices or adjust quantities to suit your preferred taste.
You could swap wholegrain oats for quinoa flakes, however quinoa flakes are more bitter in flavour so you may need to adjust sweetness.
