Ingredients
- 1 cup millet
- 2 cups water
- 1.5 cups coconut milk
- 1 large, mashed banana
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup fresh berries
- 0.25 cup chopped nuts
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the millet thoroughly under cold water using a fine mesh sieve.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, combine the millet and 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
Step 3
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the water is absorbed.
Step 4
Add the coconut milk, mashed banana, maple syrup, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt to the saucepan with the cooked millet.
Step 5
Stir well and cook over low heat for another 10-15 minutes, stirring frequently, until the porridge is thick and creamy.
Step 6
Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the porridge to cool slightly, as it will thicken further while cooling.
Step 7
Serve the porridge warm, topped with fresh berries and chopped nuts for extra flavor and texture.
