Recipe

Ingredients

2 tbsp millet
2 tbsp amaranth
1 tsp chia seeds
2 tbsp quinoa
2 tbsp buckwheat groats
½ cup water
2 cups almond milk
2 apples, peeled, cored & diced
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp maple syrup
2 tbsp water
2 tbsp Greek yoghurt

Maple syrup

Method

Place the millet, amaranth, quinoa, buckwheat, chia seeds and water in a bowl to soak overnight. Rinse and drain prior to cooking.
Place the grains and almond milk in a saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat and allow to simmer until the grains are soft and the texture is creamy.
To make the stewed apples, place the apples, water, cinnamon and maple syrup in a saucepan over low heat. Cook for 8–10 mins or until the apples are tender.
Divide the porridge into bowls and top with yoghurt, granola, stewed apples, extra cinnamon and maple syrup, if desired. Serve.
