InstantPot Millet Porridge

Cooking millet might be intimidating and tricky for some, but the InstantPot will ease your worries. No more standing over the stove pot and wondering if you’re doing it all wrong. As long as you stick to the liquid-millet ratio, expect a creamy porridge for breakfast in less than 20 minutes. Plus, you can be productive and do something else while waiting for your food. 

The combination of these flavors will comfort your soul and nourish your health. The sweet taste of the blueberries is a terrific supplement to the millet. You’ll also encounter the refreshing essence of coconut flakes. While there’s already sweetness from the woody notes of vanilla and maple syrup, topping the porridge with cinnamon will add an extra aromatic edge to your breakfast.

My family thinks InstantPot Millet Porridge is a delicious breakfast option.

Is InstantPot Millet Porridge healthy?

Yes, InstantPot Millet Porridge is super healthy! Millet is gluten-free, and it decreases the risk of colon cancer and helps kidney and heart function. Besides being hailed as the “king of antioxidants,” blueberries have anti-diabetes effects and help in your battle with urinary tract infections. Although you can use water or any dairy-free milk for the liquid in this recipe, hemp milk has a thicker and creamier texture, much like cow’s milk. Dairy milk is not a good source of omega 3 and 6, but hemp milk is loaded with them, which will make you look younger and increase the good cholesterol in your body!

Play with other toppings like you would when eating oatmeal. Try different fruits per day or combine them all. We suggest strawberries, raspberries, bananas (avoid these 3 for a low histamine diet), apples, chia seeds, almonds, and rawnola. You can also turn this InstantPot millet porridge into savory by adding tofu, bokchoy, and eggs.

The millet porridge provides vital carbohydrates for energy without excess sugar or fat. It includes a variety of whole grains and is a natural source of many essential nutrients, including Vitamins B1, B2, B3, folate, iron, and calcium. InstantPot Millet Porridge is an excellent source of dietary fiber and helps with digestion since it contains both soluble and insoluble fiber.

Topped with cinnamon, InstantPot Millet Porridge can help regulate blood sugar levels by slowing the absorption of carbohydrates into the bloodstream.

It also has a high glycemic index that will provide a boost in sustained energy.
