When a recipe is satiating, tasty and healthy too, you don’t have to think twice before making it. Well, this Vegan Amaranth Almond Milk and Apple Porridge is just that!

A touch of cinnamon and maple syrup give it an awesome flavour, while ingredients like apple and wholegrain amaranth give it an interesting mouth-feel.

If you are not vegan , you can use honey instead of maple syrup – that has a nice, rustic taste too. Wholegrain amaranth is full of protein. Almond milk too is a rich source of calcium and protein, while apple is loaded with fibre and nutrients.

Working together, these nutritious ingredients keep you full for a long time. This gluten-free recipe also reduces inflammation and cholesterol. It is especially good for pregnant women. Serve it immediately after preparation as it tends to get lumpy after a while.
