Oats egg porridge – How to make creamy oatmeal with eggs. This was one of the recipes that was requested by many readers especially for babies and kids. This recipe was shared by another reader who makes it regularly for her breakfast.
I usually make this vegetable oats porridge & this breakfast oatmeal with dried fruits. Stirring in an egg to a oatmeal porridge seemed to be very unusual. But this recipe has been liked by many since it is healthy.
The nutrition levels in this egg oats is quite high and is very healthy due to the addition of egg. If made right, the egg doesn’t smell in this dish and turns out to be creamy all without the addition of milk or cream.
This can be had for breakfast or a light dinner. It is best served immediately after cooking or at least while it is warm. I have used little carrot which can be skipped if you do not prefer.
Oats egg porridge is great for those who are on the lookout for ideas to include more protein to your oatmeal.
I have kept it plain here for this post. But in the recent times I have made it with pav bhaji masala and felt the spice powder really elevates the flavor of this egg oats porridge.

Hi Mam,
Your blog got a new look?. Once you said that avoid eggs during dinner for babies. Can I give this as a dinner for my ten month baby?

Hi Reshma,
You can give this for lunch. Egg during night time is not good for babies until 1 year. They will have colic and not sleep well in the night
