Ingredients

    1/2 cup dry amaranth
    1/2 cup dry millet
    1/2 cup dry steel-cut oatmeal
    6 cups milk (chocolate almond milk makes a great substitute!)
    1 apple, peach or pear
    1 banana
    1-1/2 cups walnut bits
    2 teaspoons powdered cinnamon
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
    Sugar to taste (optional)


Tips

Banana and cinnamon provide sweetness. Should not require added sugar.


Directions

Chop fruit into small cubes. Leave skin on. Bring milk of your choice (regular, skin, soy or almond) to a low boil in a deep pot (so milk does not froth over side) and reduce heat immediately to minimum to keep it simmering. Add amaranth, millet and oats (substitute buckwheat for oats to make a gluten-free recipe) then add cinnamon and optional vanilla extract. Simmer for 20 minutes. Add nuts as a topping. Can be eaten as a hot breakfast cereal or cold as a pudding.
