Recipe: Buckwheat Porridge

Tuesday, January 06, 2015

Been experimenting with some grain alternatives. Found a winner in buckwheat groats, which is actually a seed.

Buckwheat is a great gluten-free option for porridge, muesli, pancakes and even a rice substitute. I tried it all in the last few weeks with astounding success (aside from pancakes that are as dense as bricks).

Buckwheat porridge with Coconut Almond

Porridge recipe below - I find the texture is a lot more fun than oatss.

Buckwheat porridge
- 1/2 Cup buckwheat groats
- 1 Cup water
- 1/2 Cup almond milk (or cow's milk, soy milk etc.)
- 1 Tbsp Coconut Almond Spread (use MiLA's)
- dash of salt

Add buckwheat, water and salt and bring to a boil on a a stovetop. Combine with milk and let simmer for 10 minutes.

Drizzle the spread and feel free to add any (or all) of cinnamon, greek yogurt, chopped nuts, honey and fresh fruit. A really good new breakfast staple if you suffer from oats fatigue or gluten intolerance.
