  • 1 pinch cinnamon
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1-2 tbsp cashew butter
  • Toppings: kiwi, blood orange, granola, cashew butter

Instructions

Notes

Tip from my kitchen: you do not need to rinse millet flakes, just stir them straight into the warm liquid. Cook the porridge patiently over low heat so it turns really creamy, almost like semolina porridge. I add the orange juice at the very end to keep it fresh. If you like it sweeter, simply stir in a little more syrup. Leftovers reheat well the next morning with a splash of plant milk.
