Creamy Millet Porridge

I have to admit that I have a very serious addiction to porridge! Especially in the colder seasons. Sometimes I wish that I could eat it for every meal, that's how much I love it. It is so creamy and warming and soothing. Like eating a giant hug right in the morning. The best you can start your day with. You can make it in so many variations and top it with your favorite things to create something insanely delicious.

As a student my mornings tend to be very busy. I try to sleep as long as possible but at once I want to take myself enough time for an energizing breakfast. This millet porridge is an absolute savior on days like this. When you precook some millet it will only take a minute in the morning to prepare.


The millet takes about 30 minutes to cook. You can precook an amount for the week or the evening before serving and store it in the fridge.  Then just add a few toppings and it is ready to enjoy. If you would like to eat your porridge warm you can heat it up in the microwave or on the stove. But I promise, cold it tastes delicious as well.

Creamy Millet Porridge
for 2 persons 

150g Millet
500ml Hot water
1 tsp Salt
2 tbsp Honey 

100ml Milk of your choice (I used rice-milk)
1 tbsp Flax seeds
2 tbsp Cranberries
1 tsp Cashew butter
1 tsp Cacao nibs

Combine the millet together with the hot water in a pot. Cover it and let it simmer for about 30 minutes. When the water is absorbed too fast, add a little bit more. Then add the salt and the honey and stir well. Portion the millet among two bowls. Pour over the milk and sprinkle the other ingredients on top.
