Ingredients
- 1 cup quinoa flakes
- 1 cup plant milk
- 1 cup water
- ½ teaspoon cardamom or cinnamon
- pinch salt optional
Optional toppings
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- berries or fruit
Instructions
- Add the quinoa flakes, cinnamon (or cardamom), plant milk, water and optional salt to a pot. Bring to a light simmer and stir frequently for 2-3 minutes, so the porridge thickens. If the porridge has become too thick for your preference, pour in a little more milk or water.
- Spoon into your bowls, drizzle with maple syrup and add the toppings you like.
Notes
- Make sure to use quinoa flakes rather than quinoa seeds!
- Adjust the amount of plant milk to preference. If you prefer a looser porridge, pour in a little more milk.
- For a thicker quinoa porridge you can use all plant milk rather than half and half with water.
