Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup millet
- 2 cups water
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon cinnamon
- 0.25 cup sliced almonds
- 0.5 cup fresh berries
Instructions
Start by rinsing the millet thoroughly under cold water until the water runs clear to remove any residual starch.
In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed millet and 2 cups of water. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan with a lid, and let it simmer for about 15 minutes until the water is mostly absorbed and the millet is tender.
Add the coconut milk, vanilla extract, honey, sea salt, and cinnamon to the cooked millet. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
Continue to cook the mixture over low heat, stirring frequently, for another 10 minutes until the porridge achieves your desired creamy consistency.
Remove the saucepan from heat and let the porridge sit for a few minutes to thicken slightly.
Spoon the porridge into bowls and top each serving with sliced almonds and a generous handful of fresh berries.
Serve warm and enjoy your nourishing Paleo Creamy Millet Porridge!
