Delicious winter buckwheat breakfast
This weekend I was again with my girlfriend in Germany.
The girlfriend of the delicious, but uber-healthy breakfasts.
This Sunday we made this delicious winter breakfast together.
She had made a spice mix in advance of:
- 2 tbsp ginger powder
- 2 tbsp cinnamon
- 1 tbsp ground cardamom.
You can simply keep this in a well-sealed and clean glass jar.
We had for 2 persons:
- 200 gr buckwheat boiled in a layer of water for five minutes.
- The buckwheat should be just under water.
- We added the spice mix to taste.
- She normally does not add salt. I missed that a bit, it was a bit lackluster.
- When I make my own oatmeal breakfast this way, I put a little bit of salt in it. So that's up to your taste.
- When it was ready we took it off the heat and stirred the buckwheat for a while. We then let it cool down.
- We shieldeda sweet firm apple and cut them into slices that are not too thin.
- We also sprinkle it a bit with the spice mix.
- We dida little sunflower oil in a frying pan and fry the apple slices alternately.
- We baked the apple until it started to soften a little.
- We put the buckwheat in a bowl and divided the apple slices over it.
- We then did eacha handful of blueberries in our bowl.
- Last we did a small tablespoon of flaxseed oil for our shot of healthy fats.
I had never made a buckwheat breakfast myself. I also got the wrong one. She wanted buckwheat grains and I had bought the ground version which is very similar to oatmeal. The grains have a tastier bite, she thought, and that's right.
I once made a salad with buckwheat grains, so I should have known. I will therefore soon also make breakfast with the grains. You cook the grains between five and eight minutes.
Do you think: well if it looks so much like oatmeal, then I make it with oatmeal. That is not entirely true.
Oats and buckwheat each have a different combination of macronutrients, vitamins and minerals. That is why it is good to vary.
You get the most health benefit from a varied diet. You get more different vitamins and minerals than if you eat the same breakfast every day.
