Method
- Cook the Quinoa Rinse 1 cup of quinoa under cold water to remove any bitterness. In a saucepan, combine the rinsed quinoa with 2 cups of almond milk and a pinch of cinnamon for added flavour. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, then reduce it to low and cover. Let it simmer for about 15 minutes or until all liquid is absorbed.
- Prepare Your Toppings While the quinoa is cooking, prepare your toppings by slicing bananas and washing fresh raspberries and blueberries. You can also toast slivered almonds in a dry frying pan over medium heat until they turn golden brown.
- Assemble Your Breakfast Bowl Once cooked, fluff up the quinoa with a fork. Place around half-cup servings into individual bowls as desired (adjust according to personal preference). Add sliced bananas on top followed by fresh raspberries and blueberries. Sprinkle toasted slivered almonds or other preferred nuts/seeds such as hemp seeds if desired. Optional Step: Drizzle honey or warm almond milk over each bowl before serving for an extra touch of sweetness and creaminess. Adjust quantities based on taste preferences. Note: Feel free to get creative with additional toppings like Greek yoghurt dollops or swirls of nut butter such as almond butter if you prefer more richness in flavours!

Customisation Options
When it comes to the berry quinoa breakfast bowl, there are endless possibilities for customisation. Whether you have specific dietary preferences or restrictions, or simply want to switch things up and add your own personal touch, this recipe can easily be tailored to suit your needs.
Experiment with Different Toppings
One way to customise your breakfast bowl is by experimenting with different toppings. While the traditional recipe calls for sliced bananas, fresh raspberries, fresh blueberries, and hemp seeds as toppings, feel free to get creative! Consider adding a dollop of creamy Greek yoghurt on top for an extra protein boost. The tanginess of the yoghurt pairs perfectly with the sweetness of berries and adds a delightful creaminess.
If you’re looking for some added crunch in every bite, try sprinkling toasted slivered almonds over your bowl. Not only do they provide texture but also bring out their nutty flavour that complements well with quinoa and berries.
For those who love nut butter spreads like almond butter or cashew butter – why not drizzle a spoonful over your creation? This will give an additional richness while providing healthy fats which help keep you satisfied throughout the morning.
Additionally, you may choose alternative seeds such as chia seeds or flaxseeds instead of hemp seeds if desired. These tiny powerhouses pack essential nutrients including omega-3 fatty acids, fibre, and antioxidants making them great additions too!
Use Different Types of Milk
Another aspect that can be customised is using different types of milk when cooking quinoa. For instance, dairy-free alternatives like almond milk, oat milk, or coconut milk work just as well. They infuse unique flavours into each grain giving rise to new taste profiles altogether. So don’t hesitate to experiment!
