Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 1 large apple (cored and cut into small cubes)
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- ¼ cup of dried cranberries
- 1 cup cooked farro (I used semi-pearled farro)
- 1 cup quinoa crunch – see note for the recipe
- ¼ cup honey or maple syrup
- handful of pecans (as garnish)
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (optional)
Instructions
- Heat coconut oil in a small sauce-pan or cast-iron skillet. Add in the apple cubes, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Cook, stirring frequently, until they turn golden brown.
- Stir in the cranberries and farro. Give it a stir to make sure that the apples are distributed evenly amongst other ingredients. Cook 4-5 minutes or until warmed all the way through.
- Divide it amongst 4 bowls. Sprinkle each bowl with quinoa crunch and drizzle them with honey. Garnish with pecans.
- Serve them as they are, or if preferred, with almond milk on the side.
- To store: As long as it is kept in an airtight container, it will keep fresh up to 3 days in the fridge. When ready to eat, you can warm it up in the microwave or on stove top in a small sauce-pan.
Notes:
- Please read the blog post to find out how to cook farro.
- Quinoa crunch adds a really nice crunch to this bowl. For this recipe, I swapped the slice almonds with same amount chopped pecans.
- This recipe is adapted (with minor changes) from Megan Gordon’s cookbook Whole-Grain Mornings.
