This creamy and healthy farina and almond butter breakfast bowl will certainly fill you up and is a perfect way to start your day on a chilly winter morning. Are you looking for a breakfast bowl that is dairy free? We used almond milk rather than dairy milk to prepare the farina. You could also use any other nut or plant based milk. Did we mention that the prep time is easy and quick? That means you can enjoy a healthy and delicious meal before running out the door in the morning or you can savor it on the weekends with your favorite hot beverage.
Here’s a few helpful hints to follow when making the farina. When using your microwave, be certain to cook the farina uncovered in a deep bowl and to carefully watch the cooking process to avoid spillage. When removing from the microwave, use care because the bowl will be hot. Be sure to whisk the farina to your desired consistency and allow to cool a little. Then let the fun begin by adding your toppings. We added lots of flavor, texture, and pops of color with our choices of almond butter, wheat germ, banana chips, and fresh red raspberries. We finished off this heartwarming bowl with a drizzle of agave syrup and a hint of sweetened coconut for just the right amount of sweetness.
Enjoy
