Steps
- Prep first: measure the maple syrup into two equal halves, and keep the Greek yogurt and raspberries in the fridge for topping.
- In a medium pot over medium heat, toast the almonds, stirring, until golden and fragrant, about 3 minutes; tip them onto a plate.
- In the same pot, combine the frozen blueberries, half of the maple syrup and the lemon juice. Simmer, stirring and pressing some berries, until jammy, 5 to 6 minutes. Scrape the compote into a bowl and rinse the pot.
- Pour the almond milk and water into the pot, then add the oats.
- Sprinkle the chia seeds into the pot and stir them in well so they don't clump.
- Add the cinnamon and salt. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat, then cook, stirring often, until thick and creamy, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Take the pot off the heat and stir in the vanilla and the remaining half of the maple syrup. Let the porridge stand 2 minutes to thicken.
- Divide the porridge among 4 bowls. Swirl the blueberry compote into each bowl, top with a spoonful of the Greek yogurt, the raspberries and the toasted almonds, and serve warm.
