Ingredients

• 1 cup Millet
• 2 cups Coconut milk
• 1 cup Water
• 3 tablespoons Coconut sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Shredded unsweetened coconut
• 0 Fresh berries or sliced fruit (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the millet under cold running water using a fine mesh strainer to remove any debris or impurities.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, combine the millet, coconut milk, and water. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.

Step 3

Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan with a lid, and let the millet simmer gently for 15-20 minutes or until the grains are tender and most of the liquid has been absorbed.

Step 4

Stir in the coconut sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and salt. Mix well until the sugar dissolves and the pudding becomes creamy.

Step 5

Cook for an additional 5 minutes on low heat, stirring occasionally, to allow the flavors to meld together.

Step 6

Remove the saucepan from heat and let the pudding rest for 5 minutes. This will allow it to thicken slightly.

Step 7

Spoon the pudding into serving bowls and sprinkle shredded unsweetened coconut on top for texture and flavor.

Step 8

If desired, garnish with fresh berries or sliced fruit for added color and natural sweetness.

Step 9

Serve warm or chilled, depending on your preference. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
