Creamy Quinoa Porridge Recipes

5-MINUTE CREAMY QUINOA PORRIDGE (GLUTEN-FREE, VEGAN)

Steps:

• Combine quinoa flakes, ground cinnamon, and sugar in a small pot. Mix to combine.
• Add almond milk and water, and stir to combine.
• Cook over moderate heat on stove, stirring gently. The porridge should start to bubble and thicken within 2 minutes (reduce the heat if it starts bubbling too much). Once the porridge is ready and has reached its desired consistency (no more than 3 to 4 minutes), remove it from heat. If the porridge has become too thick during cooking, add a little extra almond milk or water.
• Divide quinoa porridge between 4 small bowls and serve with fresh berries, a sprinkle of quinoa flakes and ground cinnamon. Drizzle with maple syrup if desired.

CREAMY QUINOA PORRIDGE WITH FLAXSEED

Steps:

• Place quinoa flakes, ground flaxseed, cinnamon, 1/2 cup coconut milk and 3/4 cup water in a saucepan. Stir to combine.
• Cook the porridge over a moderate heat on the stove, stirring gently. The porridge should start to bubble and thicken within 2 minutes. Reduce the heat if it starts bubbling too much. Cook for no longer than 3 minutes. Add a little extra water or milk if the porridge becomes too thick during cooking.
• Serve the porridge piping hot with a drizzle of maple syrup and toppings of choice.

20-MINUTE CREAMY QUINOA PORRIDGE (VEGAN)

Steps:

• In saucepan, combine quinoa, milk, maple syrup and cinnamon. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer quinoa until cooked (approx. 12-15 minutes). And splashes more water if needed to reach desired consistency.
• Divide quinoa porridge between two bowls and top with raspberries and mango. Sprinkle with chopped pecans, and coconut shavings.

QUINOA PORRIDGE

Steps:

• Heat a saucepan over medium heat and measure in the quinoa. Season with cinnamon and cook until toasted, stirring frequently, about 3 minutes. Pour in the almond milk, water and vanilla and stir in the brown sugar and salt. Bring to a boil, then cook over low heat until the porridge is thick and grains are tender, about 25 minutes. Add more water if needed if the liquid has dried up before it finishes cooking. Stir occasionally, especially at the end, to prevent burning.

QUINOA PORRIDGE WITH ESSENTIAL OILS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°F.
• In an ungreased 1 ½ quart casserole dish, beat the eggs until fluffy. Stir in the leftover oats, coconut milk, almond milk, vanilla, coconut sugar, raisins, Himalayan salt, pumpkin pie spice, and the essential oils, mixing well.
• Bake uncovered for 50 to 60 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes until most of the liquid is absorbed. Remove from the oven. The top of the porridge may be wet and not fully set. Be careful not to overbake, or it may curdle.
• Stir well and let the porridge stand for at least 15 minutes. The more time it has to settle and cool, the more the liquid will be absorbed. (For ultimate creamy goodness, place it in the refrigerator overnight.) Serve cold or reheat in a 325°F oven for 15 to 30 minutes.
