A Warm Hug from Jamaica
Jamaican banana porridge has been a beloved island breakfast for generations. Families traditionally made it in the early morning before school or work because it’s warm, creamy, filling, and uses simple ingredients grown right in the backyard. On the island, it’s known as a comfort food that gives steady energy for long days in the sun. Whether served plain or with a sprinkle of nutmeg on top, it’s one of Jamaica’s most nostalgic dishes.
