Ingredients

    1/4 cup raw buckwheat groats (I buy them at Upaya Naturals and Whole Foods bulk bin), soaked in water overnight
    3/4 cup almond milk (I used 1 cup, but it was a bit too liquid-y)
    2 tbsp chia seeds (no subs)
    1 ripe large banana (mash half, chop other half)


    1/4 tsp cinnamon and vanilla extract, optional
    rolled oats (optional)



Directions

1. Add the buckwheat groats into a bowl and cover with water. Stir. Place in the fridge overnight, or for at least a few hours, uncovered is fine.

2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the chia seeds, almond milk, banana, and optional cinnamon and vanilla. Whisk well until no chia clumps remain. Place in fridge overnight, uncovered is fine.

3. In the morning, rinse the buckwheat with cold water in a strainer until no slimy bits remain. Add rinsed and strained buckwheat into the chia mixture and stir well. Top with your desired toppings or make a parfait. Just before serving, drizzle a small amount of pure maple syrup on top to bring it all together.
