- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 cup fresh berries

Directions
Step 1
Rinse the millet under cold running water until the water runs clear to remove any impurities.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, combine the millet, almond milk, and water along with the salt.
Step 3
Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally.
Step 4
Once it reaches a boil, reduce the heat to low and cover the saucepan with a lid.
Step 5
Simmer the millet for about 20-25 minutes, or until it is tender and has absorbed most of the liquid, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

After the millet is cooked, add maple syrup, vanilla extract, and ground cinnamon to the porridge. Stir well to combine all the flavors.
Step 7
Turn off the heat and let the porridge sit with the lid on for about 5 minutes to thicken further.

Serve the porridge warm, topped with fresh berries and chopped nuts for added flavor and texture.
