Instructions

Combine and cook: In a medium saucepan, combine the oats, flaxseeds, and milk. Add the Greek yoghurt and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, stirring until well combined. Cook over a low to medium heat, stirring frequently, until the porridge thickens and the oats are soft.
Adjust lemon flavor: Taste the porridge, and if you’d like a stronger lemon flavor, stir in an additional tablespoon of lemon juice.
Serve with toppings: Once the porridge reaches your desired consistency, remove the pan from the heat and transfer it to a serving bowl. Finish with a topping of lemon zest, blueberries, and a drizzle of your sweetener of choice.

Notes

If using frozen blueberries, defrost them overnight in the fridge or heat them briefly in the microwave before adding them to your porridge.
Use unwaxed organic lemons for zesting.
