Ingredients
- 1 cup whole spelt grains
- 3 cups water or milk (or a mix)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
- Toppings: fresh berries, nuts, seeds, or a drizzle of maple syrup
Instructions
- Rinse the spelt grains under cold water and drain.
- In a medium saucepan, combine spelt, water or milk, and salt. Bring to a boil over high heat.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the spelt is tender and the porridge has thickened.
- Stir in maple syrup or honey and cinnamon if using.
- Serve warm with desired toppings.
Tips
- For a creamier porridge, use milk instead of water.
- Leftover porridge can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days; reheat with a splash of milk.
- To save time, soak spelt grains overnight to reduce cooking time by about 10 minutes.
