Ingredients
Quinoa Base
- 2 cups of water
- 1 cup of quinoa
Toppings
- 1 banana, sliced
- 1 apple, sliced
- ¼ cup of raisins
- 1 tablespoon of brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
- ½ cup of plant-based milk
Instructions
- Cook Quinoa: In a medium pot over high heat, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Stir in 1 cup of quinoa, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes or until all the water is absorbed.
- Fluff Quinoa: Remove the pot from heat and fluff the quinoa gently with a fork to separate the grains. Transfer the cooked quinoa to a serving bowl.
- Add Toppings: Top the quinoa with sliced banana, apple slices, and raisins. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of brown sugar and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon evenly over the top.
- Pour Milk: Drizzle ½ cup of plant-based milk over the entire bowl to add creaminess and enhance flavor.
- Serve and Enjoy: Mix gently if desired and enjoy your wholesome Breakfast Quinoa Apple Bowl immediately for a satisfying morning meal.
Notes
- If you don’t have apples, you can substitute with an overripe banana mashed into the quinoa after fluffing.
- Prepare a large batch and divide into portions for quick breakfasts throughout the week.
- For a convenient on-the-go meal, cook quinoa the night before and store in glass jars with toppings separately; add fruits before heading out.
