Looking for a fresh and healthy breakfast option? This raw, gluten-free, vegan Charred Apricot Buckwheat Porridge could be the perfect way to add some variety to your morning routine. It is made with raw, soaked overnight buckwheat, banana, and dairy-free milk and flavored with cinnamon. Each serving is then finished with warm and slightly charred apricots, adding a delightful contrast to the cold and creamy porridge. With a little planning ahead, this simple breakfast can be on the table in 10 minutes or less.
This recipe calls for almond milk (I often make my own homemade almond milk) and coconut oil. But you can also make a vegetarian version and opt for regular dairy milk and butter.
To make the Charred Apricot Buckwheat Porridge, you will need the following ingredients:
The night before, add 1 cup buckwheat to a glass jar and cover it with about 1.5 to 2 cups water. Stir in 1 teaspoon lemon juice or apple cider vinegar.
In the morning, drain the buckwheat and rinse well.
Heat a large, heavy skillet over medium heat and add 2 teaspoons coconut oil. Add the halved and pitted apricots, with the skin side facing upwards. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until the bottom just starts to char. Flip each apricot half, and cook for another 1-2 minutes. Remove from the heat and transfer the apricots to a plate.
To a blender, add the rinsed buckwheat, ½ cup milk, 1 chopped banana, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and 2 apricot halves. Blend until well combined, smooth and creamy.
To serve, divide the porridge among three small bowls. Top with apricot halves. Garnish with a sprinkle of nuts or seeds and a drizzle of coconut cream if you like. Enjoy!
