Steps:

  • Toast walnuts and almonds in a skillet over medium-low heat, 4 to 5 minutes. Chop into big pieces and set aside.
  • Pour water and fonio into a medium saucepan. Stir to eliminate any lumps. Add dates. Bring to a low boil, stirring often while crushing the date pieces. Reduce heat to a simmer when dates begin to dissolve. Add 1 cup milk, raisins, and cranberries. Continue to simmer, stirring often, until fonio absorbs all the liquid, about 8 minutes.
  • Divide the porridge into 6 bowls. Serve topped with equal amounts of toasted nuts, blueberries, 6 tablespoons milk, coconut, and cinnamon.

PERFECT FONIO

Fonio is an ancient grain that's been cultivated for thousands of years in West Africa. It's naturally vegan and gluten-free and is sometimes called a "super-grain" because of its high levels of iron and protein. Fonio (and other millets) are typically used to make porridge as part of a breakfast meal in certain West African countries. However, like any other grain, fonio can be cooked in various ways. This version is made like steamed rice, and flavored with cumin, star anise and a little bit of coconut oil. Enjoy it on its own, or serve it with a stew, soup, meat or sauteed vegetables.

Steps:

  • Add the coconut oil, cumin seeds, star anise, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1 cup water to a small pot and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
  • Add the fonio and stir to combine. Cover the pot, reduce the heat to low and cook until the water is absorbed and the fonio doubles in size, about 4 minutes. Fluff the fonio in the pot with a fork, taste and season with more salt if desired and then transfer to a bowl.

2 teaspoons organic coconut oil
1/4 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 star anise
Kosher salt
1/2 cup fonio grain

  • Combine the fonio and almond milk in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and let cook for another 5 minutes.
  • Fold in the chia seeds, coconut sugar, and salt. You could stop here if you want, but for the creamiest porridge, add half the mixture to a blender along with another splash of almond milk or water and blend until smooth. Add the blended mixture back to the pot and stir to combine.
  • Taste, add extra salt or coconut sugar to your liking, and top with berries. Additional toasted nuts, seeds, nut butters, or toasted coconut flakes would also be nice toppings.
