Servings: 4
Calories: 401kcal
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup buckwheat
- 1/3 cup amaranth
- 1 cup walnuts
- 1/2- 1 1/2 cups warm water divided
- 1 Tbs lemon juice
- 4 cups blueberries fresh or frozen
- 1 Tbs maple syrup
- 1/2 tsp ground cardamom
- 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
- salt
- 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
Instructions
- Cover walnuts, amaranth, and buckwheat with warm water and lemon juice. Set aside to soak overnight.
- When ready to cook, rinse and drain the grain mixture.
- Puree the blueberries with maple syrup in a blender until smooth. Pour out about half the puree and set aside.
- Add the spices and the grain mixture to the blender with a 1/2 cup water. Puree until smooth.
- Smooth the mixture into a saucepan along with enough water to make it a thinner consistency as needed, if using fresh berries (frozen berries usually release more liquid). Heat through until it turns into a thick porridge.
- Divide into bowls. Swirl a few spoonfuls of the reserved blueberry puree into each serving. Optionally, top with more blueberries and walnuts, if desired.
