Health Highlights

Ingredients


100 ml Almond milk, unsweetened
1 cup Amaranth, raw (soaked and washed overnight)
2 tsp Buckwheat (for topping)
1 tsp Chai masala
1 tbsp Coconut sugar
100 ml Macadamia milk
1 tbsp Maple syrup
1 medium Pear
1 dash Saffron
2 tbsp Sesame seeds (roasted, for topping)
2 tbsp Sliced almonds (for topping)
1 tbsp Tahini
600 ml Water
600 ml Water

Instructions


Bring the washed and overnight soaked amaranth to a boil, turn down the heat and cover for about 40 minutes. Allow to simmer, stirring every 15 minutes.

Grind the saffron with the coconut sugar in a mortar and set aside.

After amaranth has simmered for 40 minutes, add the chai masala, almond milk and macadamia milk. Simmer for another 10-20 minutes on very low temperature while stirring, to ensure it does not burn.

Bring 100 ml of water to a boil. Add the saffron and coconut sugar mixture, and reduce heat to low.

Meanwhile, cut the pear into slices and place in the saffron mixture. Simmer for 5-10 minutes.

Season the now creamy amaranth with tahini and maple syrup, and pour into shallow bowls.

Top with saffron pears, and garnish with almonds, buckwheat and sesame seeds.

Enjoy!
