As autumn approaches, it's time to reach for a warm, nutritious breakfast that will warm up your body and give you energy for the day. This buckwheat porridge with apple, yoghurt, cinnamon and nuts is the perfect choice - easy to prepare, naturally sweet thanks to honey and packed with healthy fats and protein. What's more, it can be customised to your taste and if you'd like to save time in the morning, feel free to make it in the evening. It also tastes great when chilled and its consistency resembles pudding.
Ready in 20 minutes
Portion 1
Difficulty simple
Ingredients
○ 150 ml milk (your choice - I use lactose-free milk most often)
○ 40 g buckwheat semolina
○ teaspoon honey (or other liquid sweetener)
○ cinnamon
○ 1/2 apple
○ 100 g yoghurt
○ 10 g nuts to taste (walnut, pecan, ... )
○ spoonful of protein (optional - vanilla or cinnamon tastes great here)
○ piece of butter for the pan
Method
- Cut the apple into cubes and fry it in a pan with a little butter. Gradually add the cinnamon and sweetener to taste. Let it fry until golden brown.
- Heat the milk in a small saucepan and gradually add the buckwheat semolina. Stir with a whisk so that no lumps form. Bring the mixture to the boil, then turn down the heat and let the porridge bubble gently for about 5-7 minutes until it starts to thicken.
- Transfer the porridge to a bowl and let it rest for a while. Stir in the protein at the end if you like, and you can also add the yogurt (but it's up to you if you want to mix it into the porridge mixture or serve it as a decoration with the apples).
Tips and tricks
○ Preparation of lump-free porridge: when adding buckwheat groats to milk, pour it very slowly and stir constantly with a whisk.
○ Honey at the end: if you want to preserve all the nutrients from the honey, add it after the porridge is cooked. Heat could destroy some of the beneficial enzymes and vitamins.
○ Serving cold: If some of the porridge is left over, you can store it in the fridge and serve it cold as 'overnight oats'. In the morning, just add your favorite decoration (cinnamon, cocoa, fruit, nut butter, etc.) and a healthy breakfast in minutes!
