Try this delicious recipe as for breakfast, or as a healthy dessert. You can use either brown or ivory teff grain.
Place a medium-sized pot over medium heat. Add the teff and toast, stirring frequently, until it starts to pop and becomes fragrant. Stir in the apple cider and a pinch of salt and bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 30-35 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cider is absorbed and the teff has thickened to a porridge. Stir in the butter.
Divide the porridge evenly among bowls and top with the apples, walnuts, and yogurt. Serve immediately. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to a week. Reheat in a pot over a low flame, stirring in more cider or water to reconstitute.
