Ingredients You Need for Millet Porridge [Vegan]

  • 1/2 cup millet *) (have a look at the last paragraph, question "which millet for porridge")
  • 1 1/4 cup water
  • 3/4 cup coconut milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 banana

How to Prepare Millet Porridge [Vegan]

  1. Ideally, rinse the millet and soak it in water overnight before processing.
  2. Put the water and coconut milk in a saucepan, add the millet and cinnamon and bring to the boil.
  3. Let simmer uncovered on low to medium heat for about 10 minutes. Stir in between so that nothing burns.
  4. Then switch off the stove, but leave the millet to swell for another 10 minutes. Now the excess liquid is sucked up, and you will soon have a creamy result. If you have a gas stove where the stove doesn't stay hot forever, let the millet cook a few minutes longer.
  5. Mash a banana with a fork and stir it into your porridge.
