Amaranth "cream Of Wheat"

Total Time: 20 mins Cook Time: 20 mins

Ingredients

• 1 cup amaranth, grains
• 1 cup water

Recipe

• 1 rinse grains in cool water, and let soak for as long as you can (a few mins to 24hrs ok!). i soak mine overnight, this way it is not necessary to toast the grains first. less heat=more nutrients!
• 2 toast grains (if not soaked) in coconut butter (yum) or oil (if you don't have this on hand use butter or grapeseed oil) lightly, until golden.
• 3 add 1 cup of boiling water. simmer for 15-20mins, you will notice the grains become slightly translucent.
• 4 transfer to a bowl, add you favorite "nut" or oat milk, stevia or coconut nectar. you can also do a grits style version with butter and salt -- a thicker consistency will be polenta like.
