Crockpot Apple Cinnamon Creamy Buckwheat Porridge (Vegan + Gluten Free)
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups Buckwheat Groats*
- 4 cups water
- 1 cup unsweetened vanilla plant based milk
- 3 apples, cored and chopped into small pieces
- 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
- 2 teaspoons of cinnamon**
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- pinch of salt
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in prepared slow cooker. You will want to lightly spray your crockpot with cooking spray, as this will prevent sticking to the crockpot.
- Stir.
- Cook on high 4 - 5 hours or low 7 + hours.
- Enjoy! I like to top mine with a dollop of vanilla soy yogurt, raisins, toasted coconut and nuts.
Notes
- *recipe adapted from Science of Natural Health
- *I like to soak my groats overnight since they are a seed and can cause digestion issues for some - you may not have to do that if you do not have a sensitivity
- **you could omit the 1 teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice and use 3 teaspoons of cinnamon
