Apple cinnamon buckwheat porridge (vegan, GF)

December 4, 2017 By travellingoven Leave a Comment

Honestly I was not sure if I should post this on the blog because even if the recipe is simple and delicious (the way I like it!) and this buckwheat porridge is such an amazing way to start your day with something healthy and comforting, it’s just not the prettiest dish. I mean if it would compete with a decadent chocolate cake or pavlova cake with strawberries or beautiful apple pie, this porridge would lost for sure in that beauty contest! 😀 But when I posted a photo of it on my Instagram and Facebook pages people responded really well and many wanted a recipe so I decided to share it here as well! Maybe it’s not the prettiest but it’s delicious, healthy, perfect for cold winter days and easy to make plus you can make your own version with different toppings!

Do you like buckwheat? I like it a lot and interestingly enough at the same time I’m not a big fan of buckwheat flour as it has very strong taste that doesn’t suit me somehow. Maybe that will change as I would love using the flour as well since it’s so healthy but for the moment I’ll stick with buckwheat.

Buckwheat is actually not a grain and it’s gluten-free, it’s also rich in essential nutrients, minerals including manganese, magnesium and copper and good source of the B vitamins: B6, pantothenic acid, niacin, folate, thiamin and choline.

I used to eat it often as a savoury dish, specially when I would visit my family in Slovenia as it’s such a popular dish there, specially prepared with mushrooms, so yummy! But lately I’ve been making it as naturally sweetened porridge and love it, it’s easier to my stomach than regular oats porridge and I love its subtle nutty flavour. You can make so many different combinations with it and I came up with this apple cinnamon one that I absolutely love, hope you will love it too! 🙂
