Ingredients

  • 35 g (⅓ cup) quinoa flakes
  • 270 ml coconut milk, or milk of your choice
  • 2 tbsp white chia seeds
  • 1 tbsp organic honey or maple syrup, plus extra to serve
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon, plus extra to serve
To serve
  • berries
  • toasted flaked almond
  • toasted coconut chips

Instructions

1. Place the quinoa flakes in a sieve and rinse under running water until the water runs clear to remove the bitterness. 

2. Place all the ingredients in a saucepan and stir over low heat for 3 minutes or until the desired consistency is achieved. For a thinner consistency, add extra milk and for a thicker consistency, simmer longer.

3. Pour the porridge into bowls and top with berries, nuts, coconut chips, a pinch of extra cinnamon and a drizzle of honey.
