Fonio porridge with dried fruits, coconut, cinnamon, and nuts for a nutritious breakfast.
Ingredients:
- 0.25 cup walnuts
- 0.25 cup almonds
- 2 cups water
- 1 cup fonio grains
- 4 dates, pitted and chopped
- 1 cup milk
- 0.5 cup raisins
- 0.5 cup dried cranberries
- 0.5 cup fresh blueberries
- 6 tablespoons milk
- 6 tablespoons shredded coconut
- 6 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Instructions:
- Toast a medley of walnuts and almonds in a skillet over gentle heat for 4 to 5 minutes. Coarsely chop into sizable pieces and set aside.
- In a medium saucepan, combine water and fonio, stirring until smooth. Mix in dates and bring to a gentle boil, crushing the dates as you stir. Lower the heat once dates start to dissolve. Stir in 1 cup milk, raisins, and cranberries. Simmer and stir frequently until fonio absorbs all the liquid, approximately 8 minutes.
- Portion the porridge into 6 bowls and garnish each with a generous sprinkle of toasted nuts, blueberries, 1 tablespoon of milk, coconut, and a dash of cinnamon on top before serving.
