Ingredients

• 2 cups Cooked brown rice
• 3 cups Unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of your choice)
• 1 cup Water
• 2 tablespoons Maple syrup (or sweetener of choice)
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 pinch Pinch of salt
• 0 Optional toppings: fresh fruits, nuts, seeds, shredded coconut, or additional cinnamon

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the cooked brown rice, almond milk, and water. Stir well to distribute the liquid evenly.

Step 2

Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Stir occasionally to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pan.

Step 3

Once the mixture begins to simmer, reduce the heat to low and stir in the maple syrup, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt.

Step 4

Continue to cook the porridge on low heat for 15-20 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent scorching and to help the mixture thicken to your desired consistency.

Step 5

Once the porridge has reached your preferred consistency, taste and adjust sweetness if needed by adding more maple syrup.

Step 6

Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the porridge sit for a minute or two to cool slightly.

Step 7

Transfer the brown rice porridge to serving bowls and top with your favorite toppings such as fresh fruits, nuts, seeds, shredded coconut, or an additional sprinkle of cinnamon.

Step 8

Serve warm and enjoy your creamy, comforting bowl of brown rice porridge!
