Step 1
Start by warming your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a 9x13-inch glass or ceramic dish, mix together the hot water, millet, milk, chopped dates, blueberries, and a splash of vanilla extract until everything is evenly combined. Pop the dish into the oven and let it bake for about 30 minutes. After that, give it a good stir to make sure everything cooks evenly. Put it back in the oven and bake for another 30 minutes or until the millet is nice and thick and there’s no liquid left. Let it cool for a few minutes before digging in.
Why you’ll love it
This porridge is a wholesome and nourishing way to start your day. Millet is naturally gluten-free and packed with fiber, which helps keep you full longer. Adding fresh fruit brings natural sweetness and a boost of vitamins, making each bite both tasty and good for you.
How to serve
Top the porridge with a handful of nuts or seeds for added crunch and protein. A drizzle of honey or a sprinkle of cinnamon can enhance the flavor. Fresh berries or sliced banana work well to complement the natural earthiness of the millet.
Storage & leftovers
Store any leftover porridge in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave, adding a splash of milk or water to loosen the texture if needed. Avoid freezing, as it can change the consistency.
