Ingredients

• 1/2 cup Teff grain
• 1.5 cups Almond milk
• 3/4 cup Mixed berries
• 1 tbsp Ground flax
• 1 tbsp Maple syrup
• 1/2 tsp Cinnamon
• 1/2 tsp Vanilla extract

Steps

1. Rinse the teff in a fine-mesh sieve; the grains are tiny enough to slip through a colander.
2. Simmer with the almond milk 20 minutes, stirring every few minutes; teff pops and thickens like miniature couscous.
3. It is done when creamy with a slight chew, similar to steel-cut oats.
4. Stir in the flax, cinnamon, vanilla, and maple.
5. Rest 3 minutes off the heat; it continues to thicken.
6. Top with berries and serve warm.
