Ingredients

  • 1 cup buckwheat groats*
  • 2 cups water
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk**
  • 1/4 cup raisins
  • 1 Tblsp agave syrup
  • 1/2 tsp rum extract
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

  • Combine rinsed or soaked/rinsed buckwheat groats, water, raisins, agave, rum extract and salt in medium size saucepan.
  • Bring to a boil.
  • Turn heat to low, cover (I like to leave the lid just a pinch open to vent so the liquid doesn't spill all over the stovetop).
  • Cook on low for 20 minutes, stirring a few times to the groats don't burn on the bottom of the pan.
  • Add unsweetened almond milk and cook for 5 minutes more.  
  • Top with favorite toppings! I love a dollop of dairy free vanilla yogurt, pecans and coconut chips.

Notes

  • *I soaked mine overnight - I think this makes them creamier.
  • **You can substitute your favorite dairy free milk.
