If you’re missing the warmth and comfort of traditional oatmeal on your keto journey, this Almond Hemp Heart Porridge is the perfect solution. Packed with nutrient-dense ingredients like chia seeds, flax, and hemp hearts, this creamy, low-carb porridge is a satisfying way to start your day, without the sugar crash.
While a standard bowl of oatmeal can contain over 27g of carbs per serving, this keto porridge slashes that to just 9.2g of net carbs while delivering 16.2g of protein and over 24g of healthy fats. It's also cholesterol-free and 100% plant-based.
Why You Should Start Your Day With This Keto Porridge
This porridge fuels your morning with a powerful trio of fiber, omega-3s, and protein—all essential for maintaining energy levels, satiety, and digestive health on a ketogenic diet. According to the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, omega-3 fatty acids from seeds like flax and chia can support heart and brain health while reducing inflammation.
Additionally, hemp hearts provide a complete plant-based protein source, meaning they contain all nine essential amino acids—a rare find in vegan nutrition.
