Cracked Farro Porridge with Farm Berries and Walnuts

By Jackie618

Ingredients

• basic porridge:
• 1 cup cracked farro
• 3 cups water
• a few pinches salt
• Add-in:
• 2 + Tbsp maple syrup
• 1/2 cup soy creamer (for pouring over top as desired)
• 1 cup sliced farmer's market organic berries
• 1/2 cup crushed raw walnuts
• other: additional berried, dried fruits, spices like cinnamon, vanilla..

Preparation

Step 1

1. Add farro to dry soup pot - over high heat. Allow grains to toast in dry pan for about a minute. Tossing around a bit.
2. Add in water and salt.
3. bring to a boil, reduce heat to low and simmer for about 15 minutes. If you simmer covered with a lid be sure to monitor closely - as farro can bubble quite rapidly - spilling over the pot. NOTE: this method is for cracked farro. Whole grain farro will take longer to cook.
4. When farro has reached a cooked consistency, add ingredients like maple syrup and spices.
5. Serve in a bowl with soy milk or creamer poured over top - I like a nice amount to loosen the cooked farro.
6. Add berries and walnuts - and anything else. Serve!
