Everybody is intimidated with how to make nut milk, but here, Amelia shares her quick and extremely easy method.
To make the nut milk, you’ll need:
Hazelnut butter or a nut butter of your choice
Water
Method:
- Take a jar of any of your favourite nut butter and put 2 tablespoons into your blender

Amelia recommends adding a pinch of cinnamon or vanilla to flavour the milk. And that’s your nut milk done! As simple as it is tasty.
To make the porridge, you’ll need:
Chia seeds
Nut milk (that you made following the previous recipes)
Figs
Method:
- Take 1 tablespoon of chia seeds and pour it into a jar
- Pour your nut milk over the chia seeds
- Leave to soak for around 10-20 minutes (don’t worry if it seems slimy – the nut milk will give it a creamy richness)
- Pour into your serving bowl
- Get your fresh figs and chop into small quarters. Place on top of the chia seeds
