Sorghum Porridge Recipe

Make a warm, gluten-free sorghum porridge that’s hearty, fiber-rich, and easy to customize with toppings — the perfect wholesome breakfast to start your day.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup whole sorghum (soaked overnight if possible, for quicker cooking)

  • 3–4 cups water or milk (dairy or plant-based, adjust for desired thickness)

  • Pinch of salt

  • 1–2 tbsp sweetener (honey, maple syrup, or brown sugar – optional)

  • ½ tsp cinnamon (optional)

  • Toppings of choice: fresh fruit, nuts, seeds, dried fruit, or nut butter

Instructions

  1. Rinse the sorghum: Rinse thoroughly under cool water. If soaked overnight, drain before cooking.

  2. Cook the grains: In a pot, combine sorghum with 3 cups of water (or milk). Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 45–60 minutes (or 30–40 minutes if soaked), stirring occasionally.

  3. Mash or blend (optional): For a creamier texture, lightly mash with a spoon or use an immersion blender once the grains are soft.

  4. Flavor it: Stir in salt, cinnamon, and sweetener to taste. Adjust thickness by adding more liquid if needed.

  5. Serve warm: Top with fruit, nuts, seeds, or a drizzle of honey and enjoy immediately.

Tip: Make a big batch ahead of time for quick weekday breakfasts — just warm individual portions with milk when ready to serve.
