Multigrain Porridge
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup steel cut oats (not quick cooking)
- 1/2 cup farro, rinsed in a fine sieve and drained
- 1/2 cup amaranth, rinsed in a fine sieve and drained*
- 4 cups water
- 1/4 tsp (heaping) salt
- 1/2 cup milk, plus more to thin
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 - 2 Tbsp real maple syrup, or more to taste
Instructions
- Add steel cut oats, farro, amaranth, water and salt to a large saucepan and stir.
- Bring mixture to a simmer over medium-high heat. Then reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered until nearly tender, stirring occasionally, about 25 minutes.
- Add milk and cinnamon and cook, stirring frequently, until tender, about 5 minutes longer while thinning with more milk as desired.
- Stir in maple syrup, add desired toppings. Serve warm.
Notes
- If you don’t have a sieve fine enough to rinse the amaranth you can skip this step. I buy amaranth here .
- Good toppings include chopped nuts, dried fruit like raisins or dried cranberries, fresh berries, bananas, peaches, mangos, apples, coconut, nut butters, fruit curds, jams or syrups.
