AMARANTH FOR BREAKFAST RECIPE - FOOD.COM



Amaranth for Breakfast Recipe - Food.com image

Amaranth is a healthy grain, but I don't like it in savory dishes. This is my delicious breakfast creation. It's vegan if you use a vegan sweetener, like agave. May I also add that I make it this way because the other flavors cover the general flavor of the amaranth. This recipe is an alternative, but it will not be like your "normal" cereal grains. I use this recipe with other grains: millet, steel cut oats, and whole spelt. Amaranth is healthy, but if you don't like amaranth, you might still get the amaranth flavor in this recipe. You might also try another grain if you don't like the natural, earthy flavors of amaranth.

Total Time 25 minutes

Prep Time 5 minutes

Cook Time 20 minutes

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 cup amaranth
1 cup water
6 tablespoons coconut milk
2 tablespoons honey or 2 tablespoons agave nectar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

Steps:

  • Cook the amaranth (this may be done the night before): Mix the water and amaranth in a saucepan and heat to boiling.
  • Turn heat to low, and let simmer for 20-25 minute Most of the water should be absorbed. Take care at the end of the cooking time, because it may get too dry and burn. You should still see the individual grains of amaranth, although they will stick together a little. Overcooking will turn the amaranth to mush.
  • Cooked amaranth will keep in the refrigerator overnight, if necessary.
  • In the morning, reheat the amaranth in the microwave, if necessary. Drizzle the amaranth with honey, sprinkle with cinnamon, and pour the coconut milk on top.

POPPED AMARANTH RECIPE | COOKING LIGHT



Popped Amaranth Recipe | Cooking Light image

Corn isn’t the only grain that pops: Amaranth, quinoa, millet, and sorghum do, too. With the smaller amaranth grains, popping in a dry pan works best; millet and sorghum work better with a little oil in the pan. If you aren’t familiar with the flavor, amaranth has a slightly peppery, pronounced grassy taste. The tiny whole grains are so small that they resemble farina or cornmeal when cooked and they pop easily, creating fluffy, airy grains. Amaranth is not only an ancient grain but it’s a good source of protein and fiber and an excellent source of magnesium. Popped to perfection, amaranth is a satisfying gluten-free and guilt-free snack.

Total Time 10 minutes

Yield Makes about 2 ½ cups Popped Amaranth

Number Of Ingredients 1

6 1/2 tablespoons uncooked amaranth

Steps:

  • Heat a large heavy Dutch oven over high heat at least 5 minutes. Spoon 1 tablespoon amaranth into pan, and check to see that seeds almost immediately start popping. If they don’t, and they instead sit in the pan and burn, the pan isn’t hot enough, and you’ll need to start over. If they do, cover the pan (popped seeds will fly everywhere) and shake it back and forth on or just over the burner until you hear the seeds start popping. Immediately pour popped amaranth into a bowl; repeat procedure with remaining amaranth, 1 tablespoon at a time.
