Raspberry Hemp Porridge

Written by: Jeanette Blandford | Published on May 28, 2025

A warming raspberry porridge with a nutty hemp seed boost — naturally sweet, full of fibre and easily adjusted to suit your bub's stage.

As the weather cools down here I’m moving away from overnight oats into warming cooked breakfasts, and I can’t go past good old porridge with a few flavour boosters! The hemp seeds give a little fibre and healthy fat addition along with a delicious nutty flavour.
