Quinoa Porridge / Quinoagröt

Instructions:

• Quinoa – ½ cup (≈85 g)
• Milk (any type) – 2 cups (≈480 ml)
• Sweetener to taste – (e.g., 3 tsp Sötströ, or adjust if using honey, stevia, sugar, etc.)
• Optional: Vanilla extract – 1 tsp (5 ml)
• Suggested topping: Ground cinnamon – to taste

Instructions:

1. Rinse 85 g of quinoa in a mesh strainer under cold water until the water runs clear. Drain well.
2. In a medium pot, combine quinoa, 480 ml milk, and sweetener to taste. (If using Sötströ, 3 tsp worked well, but adjust if using other sweeteners.) Add 1 tsp vanilla extract if using.
3. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat, then lower to a simmer. Cover partially and cook for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the quinoa is soft and the mixture thickens.
4. Serve warm with cinnamon sprinkled on top, or adjust sweetness to your preference.

Note:

The amount of sweetener needed may vary depending on what you use. If using honey, sugar, or stevia, start with a small amount and adjust to taste.
