Ingredients

Base

  • 2 cups uncooked buckwheat (rinsed)
  • 2 cups water
  • 4 cups unsweetened nut or other nondairy milk (homemade almond milk is amazing here)
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 4 pitted dates (finely chopped)

Toppings

  • 2 tbsp unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 2 tbsp dried currants
  • 2 tbsp walnuts (crushed)
  • Pinch of ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • In a medium saucepan, combine the buckwheat and 2 cups water. Cook until tender, about 30 minutes.
  • In a large saucepan, bring the milk to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the cooked buckwheat, cinnamon, and chopped dates. Cook for 10-15 minutes, or until the milk has slightly reduced and the mixture has thickened.
  • For each serving, scoop ½ cup of the steeped buckwheat into a bowl and pour about ¼ cup of the warm milk over it.
  • Top with a spoonful of shredded coconut, a sprinkle of currants, crushed walnuts, and a pinch of cinnamon.
