Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup cooked quinoa
  • 1 small apple finely diced
  • 1/2 cup non-dairy milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup pecans or walnuts
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey optional

Instructions

  • In a small saucepan over medium heat, add all ingredients except maple syrup and nuts.
  • Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and stir occasionally for about 10-12 minutes or until apples are soft and quinoa has absorbed the liquid and broken down.
  • Remove from heat. Stir in or top with nuts, and add the maple syrup or honey if you want a sweeter porridge. Top with more fresh apple, if desired, and serve.

Notes

Feel free to add more spice, such as cardamom or nutmeg.
