Instructions

Add milk, water, spices, and salt to a saucepan and bring to boil. Stir in the teff.
Then reduce to a simmer and cook for about 15 - 18 minutes, until liquid is absorbed and grains are tender.
If using, mix in the sugar or maple syrup.
When done to your liking, portion it out and serve with the toppings of your choice.

Notes

There are 5 Blue Plan SmartPoints in a serving.
For extra flavor, toast the teff grains in the saucepan for 3-5 minutes over medium heat before adding the rest of the ingredients.
Make sure to use whole grain teff (not teff flour) for this recipe.
Do remember to stir the porridge occasionally while cooking to prevent sticking/burning.
Feel free to add a little more liquid if it starts to get too thick.
