Author Notes
Buckwheat is a great alternative to oatmeal for when you want something that's filling and warm; it's also a nice option if you have gluten or wheat sensitivities. The fancy toppings add pops of flavor and nutrition, like omega-3s and protein, but feel free to mix things up with different combinations of fruits, seeds, nuts, and yogurts. —Anna Billingskog

Ingredients
- For the cereal:
-
1/4 cup
cream of buckwheat cereal
-
3/4 cup
water or milk of choice
-
1 pinch
salt
-
1/4 cup
freeze-dried raspberries
-
2-3 tablespoons
whole-milk yogurt (I prefer a plain sheep's milk yogurt, but feel free to use your favorite)
-
Honey, for drizzling
- For the seed mix:
-
3 tablespoons
raw buckwheat groats
-
4 tablespoons
hemp seeds
-
2-3 tablespoons
chia seeds
Directions
-
In a small pot over medium heat, stir the cream of buckwheat cereal into boiling milk or water and add a pinch of salt.
-
While stirring, let cook for about 5 minutes, or until the water is absorbed and the cereal is cooked and creamy.
-
If you like your hot cereal creamier, add water or milk 1-2 tablespoons at a time until the desired consistency is reached.
-
Spoon the hot cereal into your breakfast bowl, or to-go container. Top with the yogurt, freeze-dried raspberries, and seed mix. Drizzle with honey. Let sit a moment to let the chia seeds bloom, or enjoy right way.
