Ingredients
1 1/2 cups unsweetened almond milk
1/4 cup semolina
2 tbsp chia seeds
3 tbsp maple syrup
1/2 tbsp pure vanilla extract
1 cup fresh blueberries
2 tsp slivered almonds
Instructions
Combine the almond milk, semolina, chia seeds, two tablespoons of maple syrup, and vanilla extract in a small saucepan.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat while stirring constantly.
Turn off the flame once the mixture begins to boil.
Allow the porridge to cool and thicken.
In a small bowl, mix the fresh blueberries with the remaining tablespoon of maple syrup.
Assemble by layering the blueberries at the bottom of serving glasses.
Pour the thickened semolina porridge over the fruit layer.
Top with toasted slivered almonds to serve.
Notes
Store the base separately from the berries to keep the porridge texture optimal. You can toast the slivered almonds in a dry pan for 1-2 minutes until golden for deeper flavor.
