Millet Porridge

Have you noticed lately that everyone seems to be avoiding certain foods for one reason or another? Maybe it’s a food allergy or intolerance or perhaps just a dietary preference. Whatever the reason, avoiding certain foods can present challenges for both eating and cooking, but, as I have found, you can overcome them.

Ingreadient

• 1/3 cup millet
• 3/4 cup water
• 1/2 cup milk (whole, or unsweetened almond)
• 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1 pinch salt
• 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup (or honey)
• 1/2 apple (peeled and diced (or 2 tablespoons raisins). This is optional.)
• 1 tablespoon walnuts (or almonds (optional))

Step by step

1. Combine millet, water, milk, cinnamon, vanilla, salt and apples or raisins (optional). Bring to a boil, reduce to low and simmer 25 minutes or until liquid is fully absorbed. Stir in maple syrup or honey and nuts (optional).
