Raw seed porridge

It is mid-winter and this year the weather is truly... wintry. This morning there is a cold mist and the temperature shows zero degrees. I've started to make raw seed porridge. I don't eat this every day, it is oily and rich. When I feel the need for a hearty breakfast I take this with a grapefruit, orange and ginger juice.
All quantities are to taste, other ingredients are easily substituted for personal preference.

Ingredients:
1/4 cup sunflower seeds soaked in pure water overnight, rinsed, drained
8 - 9 almonds soaked in pure water overnight, rinsed, drained
tbsp golden flax dry ground in blender
tbsp sesame seeds dry ground in blender
1/2 tbsp maca powder
1/2 tsp cinnamon powder
tsp raw honey
1 banana sliced
cup whole mixed fresh berries

Method:
Blend the wet almonds and sunflower seeds until roughly chopped.
Place in bowl.
Add dry ingredients.
Heat some water to preferred temperature, pour over mixture.
Add fruit, honey to taste.

Enjoy!
