Prep Time 5 minutes

Total Time 35 minutes
Servings 1

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup unsweetened unflavored oat milk (I use Silk or Oatly)
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 cup farro, rinsed
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cardamom
  • Pink sea salt, to taste
  • 1 cup diced fuyu persimmon (use remainder for topping)
  • 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Toppings

  • Sliced or diced persimmon
  • Pure maple syrup, to taste
  • Almond butter, optional

Instructions
 

  • In a medium-small pot, heat the milk and water until boiling.
  • Add the farro, cinnamon, cardamom, and salt. Stir, then bring to a simmer.
  • Cover and simmer over low for 25 to 30 minutes, or until just tender and most of the liquid is absorbed.
  • Remove the lid, add the diced persimmon, then occasionally stir the farro for 5 minutes over medium-low heat.
  • Remove from heat, stir in the vanilla, then spoon into a bowl. Top with remaining persimmon, maple syrup, and almond butter, if you wish.
