What’s so Great About Millet?
Millet is a nutritional powerhouse! Compared to most other grains, millet has more calcium and protein, and it also contains B vitamins, fiber, phosphorous, magnesium, and iron. Go millet!
How to Make Millet Porridge
We start this millet breakfast bash off by simmering the millet in a generous amount of liquid (water and dairy-free milk) to ensure it gets super tender. Once the millet is tender and done cooking, there will be extra liquid that hasn’t been absorbed — exactly what you want when making porridge! You can enjoy it this way or turn it into a super creamy porridge (our preferred method) by blending with an immersion blender. All that’s left is to add maple syrup for sweetness, vanilla for flavor, and cinnamon for warmth. We hope you LOVE this millet porridge. It’s:CreamyVersatileWarm + comfortingSimplePerfect for meal prep& SO nourishing! We love topping it with Cinnamon-Spiced Pears and Chai-Spiced Granola for a cozy breakfast in fall and winter. It’s also delicious with stewed apples, fresh banana or berries, and/or chopped nuts and seeds.
