Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup quinoa, rinsed
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup water
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Method
 

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine the quinoa, milk, water, and salt. Bring to a gentle boil over medium-high heat, then reduce to low, cover, and cook for 12 minutes, stirring once halfway.
  2. Uncover and stir in the cinnamon, maple syrup, and vanilla. Cook 2-3 minutes more, stirring often, until thick and creamy.
  3. Ladle into bowls, add your favorite toppings, and serve immediately.

Notes

If you’re prepping this ahead, the porridge thickens quite a bit as it cools. When reheating, stir in a generous splash of milk to bring back that creamy texture.
