Ingredients
- 1 cup whole grain teff
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 1 1/2 cups Almond Breeze unsweetened vanilla almond milk
- 1 Tablespoon extra-virgin (unrefined coconut oil)
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 banana (sliced (save a few slices for topping))
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 cup crushed or sliced almonds
- maple syrup (optional for drizzling on top)
Method
- 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.20 min timer
- 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.
