Ingredients
100 g spelt semolina grain
2 cups almond milk
1 cup water (or almond milk for an even creamier result)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp vanilla powder
Pinch of sea salt
1 tbsp vegan vanilla protein powder (optional)
Pinch of cinnamon
Toppings
(fruit, nut butter, raw chocolate, cacao nibs)
METHOD
In a small pot, bring almond milk and water to a boil. Once it begins to cook, carefully stir in semolina grain and keep stirring in order to prevent lumps. Turn heat to medium-low, add in salt and vanilla, and keep stirring until the porridge gets creamy and thicker. Turn off heat and stir in vanilla protein powder (if using) and a dash of cinnamon. Put the porridge into a bowl and add your desired toppings.
