Apple Cinnamon Millet Cereal

Here is a great recipe for millet cereal.  It tastes a lot like oatmeal.  If you don't soak it as much, it tastes a lot like grits.  Millet is great for the kidneys, stomach, spleen, and pancreas.  It helps relieve Candida in your digestive system too.  It is also considered an alkaline food.  So, if you have acid reflux or too much acid in your system, millet would be a great grain for you to try.

Ingredients

1 Cup Millet (whole)
2 1/2 Cups Water
1 - 2 Tablespoons of Butter
1 Tablespoon Sucanat (Brown Sugar Substitute)
1 Teaspoon Cinnamon
1 Cup Chopped Apples
Maple Agave Nectar

Directions:  Take 1 cup of millet and put it in a bowl, covered in water, and soak overnight.  Once millet has been soaked, drain the water from the bowl.  Fill a pot with 2 1/2 cups of water and 1 to 2 Tablespoons of butter.  Bring water to a boil.  Once water comes to a boil, add the millet.  Cover and cook on medium low heat until all the water is absorbed by the grain.

Once grain has been cooked; add sucanat, cinnamon, and apples and stir.  Put a serving in a bowl and drizzle with maple agave nectar. Enjoy!

Options: Add some chopped walnuts or pecans.
