Coconut Millet Cereal

Coconut Millet Cereal

1 cup whole millet
1 cup water
1 cup coconut water
2 tsp of coconut oil (or you can use olive oil, or grapeseed)
Cinnamon (optional)
Coconut Milk (optional)


In a skillet heat 1tsp of the coconut oil (or oil of your choice) and toast the millet stirring often, when the millet is tan in color pour the coconut water and water in and bring to a boil. Boil for 1 min, then turn down to a low simmer. Simmer for 25 min. I checked mine several times and stirred, the more you stir the more creamy it because but if you want it fluffy then leave it be, but check and make sure it's not burning. That's it, simple and good for you and very yummy. Your house will smell awesome after cooking this. To serve you can sprinkle in some Cinnamon and a couple tablespoons of coconut milk.

This was so easy and it was fun for the girls to stir in the extras, we just used Cinnamon and coconut.

Tips:
If you don't have coconut water just use plain water and put some shredded coconut in after the boiling point. Even if you don't have either of these ingredients you can still make it just flavor with the below suggestions.

Stir in some strawberry jam.
Stir in some dates and mandarin oranges with juice.
Dried cranberries are also really good!
My daughter stirred in some chocolate almond milk and thought it was good.
