  2. 2

    Put the millet in a fine-meshed sieve and wash thoroughly. Then place in a pot with 200 ml of fresh water. Put a lid on, bring to a boil and simmer over low heat for about 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Once the millet has completely absorbed the water, stir in the plant milk and simmer for another 5 minutes. Finally, stir in 1 tablespoon maple syrup and 1 teaspoon cinnamon.

  4. 4

    While the millet is cooking, prepare the toppings. Coarsely chop almonds and toast in a pan without oil until golden brown. Remove from the pan and set aside.

  5. 5

    Core the apples and chop into pieces. Peel the banana and cut into slices. Now heat the coconut oil in the same pan and sauté the apple pieces for 3-4 minutes from all sides. Then add the banana slices and sauté for another minute. Add ½ tablespoon maple syrup and 1 teaspoon cinnamon and allow to caramelize a bit.

  6. 6

    Divide the millet porridge between two bowls and serve with the cinnamon apples and bananas. Sprinkle the toasted almonds and garnish with fresh tangerines, pomegranate seeds and cranberries if desired.

    Enjoy!
