Instructions:
- In a large pot, bring 5 cups of water to a boil over high heat.
- Stir in buckwheat flour and multi-grain oatmeal, ensuring they dissolve and there are no lumps.
- Once the mixture begins to thicken, reduce the heat to medium-low.
- Add vanilla extract, cinnamon, cardamom, and a dash of salt. Stir to combine, letting the flavors meld together.
- Allow the mixture to simmer for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Once the grains have softened, remove the pot from heat.
- While the grain mixture cools slightly, roughly chop the almonds. You can toast them in a dry skillet over medium heat for 5 minutes if you prefer a nuttier flavor, but this step is optional.
- Slice the banana and add the slices along with the blueberries and chopped almonds into the grain mixture. Stir well.
- Add the maple syrup and almond milk, stirring until everything is well incorporated. Adjust the sweetness according to your taste.
- Transfer the mixture to a large bowl or divide into individual serving jars or bowls.
- Cover and place in the refrigerator overnight to let the flavors develop and the texture thicken.
- In the morning, remove from the refrigerator.
- You can enjoy it cold right out of the fridge or reheat it in the microwave or on the stove until warmed to your liking.
- Optional: Top with additional fresh fruits, a drizzle of maple syrup, or a sprinkle of nuts before serving.
