Time 40m

Yield 3

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup red quinoa, rinsed and drained
2 cups water
1 tablespoon butter
1 apple - peeled, cored and diced
½ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons maple syrup
⅓ cup sliced almonds
1 ½ cups almond milk
1 tablespoon half-and-half cream, or to taste

Steps:

  • Bring the quinoa and water to a boil in a saucepan over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the quinoa is tender and the water has been absorbed, about 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the apple, and sprinkle with salt, cinnamon, and maple syrup. Stir in the almonds; cook and stir until the apple is hot and beginning to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour in the almond milk and half-and-half cream; continue cooking until hot. Stir in the hot quinoa, and cook a few minutes before serving.
