Buckwheat Porridge Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 cup buckwheat groats (170 gr.)
• 3 cups water
• 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1 tablespoon maple syrup (plus more for drizzling)
• 1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)
• 1 tablespoon hemp seeds (optional)
• Fresh fruit (as topping)

Instructions

1. 1

   Place the buckwheat groats in a fine mesh strainer and rinse under cold running water.

2. 2

   Transfer to a medium-sized saucepan, pour in the water, and add in the salt. Bring it to a boil over medium-high heat.

3. 3

   Reduce the heat to low and cover. Let it simmer for 10 minutes*. Keep a close eye on it as it cooks, and stir occasionally to prevent it from sticking to the bottom.

4. 4

   Turn the heat off but let it sit covered for 5 minutes.

5. 5

   If preferred, stir in cinnamon, maple syrup, chia seeds, and hemp seeds. Ladle into bowls. You can also add a splash of milk and top it off with fresh fruit before serving.
