Le porridge d'amarante au cacao Douceur

Treat your taste buds with this delicious recipe offered by naturopath Marine Constantieux.

 This porridge perfectly combines the cocoa SWEETNESS CBD and amaranth.
Amaranth is a pseudo-cereal (like quinoa and buckwheat) rich in complete proteins because it contains the 8 essential amino acids and is also an interesting source of iron. Amaranth is naturally gluten-free and contains soluble and insoluble fibers beneficial for transit and the intestinal microbiota.

Ingredients (for 2 to 3 people):

  • 120 g of amaranth
  • 250 g of vegetable milk
  • A few drops of lemon juice
  • 1 persimmon-apple (or another seasonal fruit)
  • 2 tsp orange blossom water
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp DOUCEUR cocoa powder
  • 1 drizzle of maple syrup (optional)
  • 1 tsp fresh pollen







Preparation steps:

In a bowl, soak the amaranth in water with lemon juice. Leave to stand for 8 hours at room temperature, for example the day before for the next day. Rinse and drain the amaranth. In a saucepan, bring the amaranth to a gentle boil with the vegetable milk and orange blossom water. Reduce over medium heat for 20 to 30 minutes until the vegetable milk is absorbed by the seeds. Meanwhile, peel and cut the persimmon into quarters. Once the porridge is cooked, remove from the heat and add the cinnamon and DOUCEUR cocoa powder. Mix well with a spatula. Pour the porridge into bowls, add a drizzle of maple syrup if necessary. Place the persimmon quarters and sprinkle with fresh pollen. Keep cool in an airtight container
