Ingredients
- 1 cup teff whole grain
- 1 ½ cups water
- 1 ½ cups almond milk Almond Breeze, unsweetened vanilla
- 1 Tablespoon extra-virgin unrefined coconut oil
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 banana sliced (save a few slices for topping)
- ¼ teaspoon salt sea salt
- ¼ cup almonds crushed or sliced
- maple syrup optional for drizzling on top
Instructions
- Bring a heavy saucepan to medium heat. Add teff, water, almond milk, coconut oil, cinnamon, banana slices and sea salt to the pan. Stir well to combine.
- Bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, turn the heat to medium-low, cover and cook at a simmer for 15-20 minutes. Make sure you give the mixture a stir from time to time to prevent the teff from sticking. If the mixture gets too thick, you can add more water or almond milk but I didn’t need any extra.
- Once the teff has cooked and the texture is to your liking, portion into bowls. Top each bowl with a sprinkle of almonds, extra banana slices and a drizzle of maple syrup, if desired.
