APPLE PIE QUINOA BREAKFAST BOWL

This Apple Pie Quinoa Breakfast Bowl is warm and delicious! Cinnamon and apples with warm almond milk over quinoa is just like apple pie! Vegan and gluten free!
Happy September friends! Does it look like fall yet where you are? Are the trees changing colors yet?

Well since September is like the official start of “fall foods” I decided to make a healthy and simple of course apple pie inspired breakfast!
You have probably already seen my blueberry quinoa breakfast bowl and my raspberry one so it won’t be news when you see I used quinoa in here! Of course you could sub oats if you want! 😉
INGREDIENTS
– ½ cup cooked quinoa (approx ¼ dry)
– ½ cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk (I like SILK brand)
– ½ chopped apple
– ½ tsp cinnamon
– Sliced banana
– Raisins for topping
– Chopped pecans for topping
OPTIONAL sweetner:
– Maple syrup
– Brown sugar
– Coconut sugar
INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Cook the quinoa if it’s not already cooked, cook it in water plain do not add anything to it.
  2. Once the quinoa is cooked add it to a bowl. In a separate bowl add the almond milk, cinnamon and chopped apples and give it a stir, place it in the microwave for about 45-60 seconds until warm or hot whichever you prefer.
  3. Pour the warm almond milk/apple/cinnamon mixture over the quinoa.
  4. Add toppings, banana, raisin, pecans and more cinnamon.
  5. If you choose to add a sweetener I would add it to the microwave mixture!
  6. This recipe serves one but it is easily adapted to serve more!

NOTES
I like to cook bigger batches of quinoa and store it in the fridge for up to 3 days so it is ready when I want to use it for breakfast like this of lunch/dinner.
