Farro Breakfast Pudding With Dates and Cardamom
Description
The Farro Breakfast Pudding With Dates and Cardamom recipe involves boiling a mixture of plant milk and water, then adding vanilla extract, ground cardamom, rinsed farro, and chopped Medjool dates. The cooking is done over low heat with the pot covered, allowing the farro to absorb the liquids and soften over 25 to 30 minutes. After cooking, removing the lid and stirring releases starches that thicken the mixture into a pudding-like consistency.
This pudding combines the nutty chewiness of farro with the sweet, caramel notes of dates and the warm, citrusy flavor of cardamom. It serves well warm for breakfast or a nourishing dessert. The use of plant milk and natural sweeteners makes it adaptable to various dietary preferences.
To preserve freshness, store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to four days. Reheat gently before serving.
Ingredients
- 1 cup plant milk unsweetened
- 2 cups water
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- ½ teaspoon ground cardamom
- 1 cup farro rinsed and drained
- 8 to 10 large Medjool dates pitted and chopped
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan heat the milk and water over high heat. Once boiling add the vanilla, cardamom, farro and dates. Stir and return to a simmer. Cover, reduce heat to low, and cook for 25 to 30 minutes or until most of the liquid has been absorbed.
- Remove the lid, and stir the farro for 3 to 5 minutes. This will release more of the starch and thicken the pudding. Remove from heat and serve.
Notes
- Store leftover pudding in an airtight container refrigerated up to four days for best freshness.
