Want a twist on your usual breakfast porridge? Try this Quinoa Porridge! It's super easy to whip up, and it's a perfect warm and cozy start to your day.
Rinse the quinoa under cold water until the water runs clear.
In a small saucepan, combine the rinsed quinoa and milk. Bring to a boil.
Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let simmer for 15 minutes or until the quinoa is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
Stir in the cinnamon and maple syrup.
Serve warm with optional fruit topping.
Ingredient Notes:
Quinoa - This is considered a low FODMAP grain and can be consumed in moderate amounts, typically up to 1 cup (cooked) per serving. We wouldn’t recommend going above that!
Dairy-free Milk - We personally think almond milk is the best, but you can choose whichever alternative you prefer! Only thing is to check the label and ensure there’s no sneaky FODMAP ingredients in there. Remember: Soybeans contain Oligosaccharides (a type of FODMAP) so probably best to stay off soy milk if you can!
Maple syrup - This is low FODMAP in small quantities, usually up to 1 tablespoon per serving. Just make sure to check the ingredients and ensure it’s pure (no sneaky FODMAP added ingredients!)
Fruit Toppings - Blueberries and Strawberries contain moderate amounts of FODMAPs, specifically fructose. Therefore it’s important to only use a handful!
