Description

Nutritious Farro Breakfast Pudding is a hearty, wholesome dish that combines the nutty flavor of farro with the creaminess of a warm pudding. Packed with fiber, protein, and essential nutrients, this breakfast pudding is a great way to start your day with a filling, nourishing meal. Sweetened with honey or maple syrup and topped with your favorite fruits, nuts, and seeds, it’s customizable and delicious!


Ingredients

For the Pudding:

1 cup farro (pearled or semi-pearled)

2 cups unsweetened almond milk (or milk of your choice)

1 tablespoon maple syrup or honey (adjust to taste)

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional)

Pinch of salt

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For Toppings (optional):

Fresh berries (blueberries, strawberries, raspberries, etc.)

Sliced banana

Chopped nuts (almonds, walnuts, pecans)

Chia seeds or flaxseeds

Greek yogurt or plant-based yogurt

Drizzle of honey or maple syrup


Instructions

  1. Rinse the farro under cold water and drain.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed farro, almond milk, maple syrup or honey, cinnamon, nutmeg (if using), and a pinch of salt.
  3. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat. Once it reaches a boil, reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 25-30 minutes, or until the farro is tender and the liquid is absorbed, stirring occasionally. If the farro is still too firm or the mixture seems too dry, add a little more milk and continue cooking until the desired consistency is reached.
  4. Once the farro is cooked, remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Let it sit for a few minutes to thicken.
  5. Spoon the farro pudding into bowls.
  6. Top with your choice of fresh fruit, nuts, seeds, yogurt, or an extra drizzle of honey or maple syrup for added sweetness.

Notes

Add a tablespoon of peanut butter or almond butter to the pudding for extra richness and protein.

Use coconut milk for a richer, tropical flavor.

Sprinkle with toasted coconut flakes or dark chocolate shavings for a sweet indulgence.

Mix in a handful of dried fruits like raisins, cranberries, or apricots for extra sweetness and texture.
