A sweet quinoa porridge for cozy breakfasts
Lately, I’ve been craving warm things for every meal, and chilly Fall mornings feel especially deserving of comforting, hot breakfasts. Steamy oatmeal with spiced fruit hits that cozy spot more often than not.
Topped with quick sautéed apples and raisins – or these maple roasted pears with fresh berries – even plain old oats feel particularly luxurious.
For a change of pace, plus a little more heft and boost in protein, nutty, quinoa porridge fills in nicely for the oats, and is similarly hearty and healthy and nourishing. But the real star of this sweet breakfast porridge is the pear topping, roasted in thick, dark maple syrup: my newest, favorite breakfast treat.
