Instructions

1
Thoroughly rinse the millet in a strainer under hot water to remove the bitterness. In a dry saucepan over medium heat, briefly toast the rinsed millet (1–2 minutes) until it smells nutty.
2
Pour a mixture of water and plant-based drink over the millet. Add a pinch of salt, cinnamon, and grated apple (this will give the porridge a creamy texture and natural sweetness).
3
Once the liquid comes to a boil, reduce the heat to minimum, cover the saucepan, and cook for about 15–20 minutes, until the porridge absorbs most of the liquid and becomes soft. Stir several times in between.
4
Remove from heat and let it rest for 2 minutes. Divide into bowls and sprinkle with chopped walnuts and blueberries. Drizzle with a little honey if desired.
