INGREDIENTS
- 2 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
- 0.13 tablespoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Powder
- 1 Banana
- 0.5 cup Basmati Rice
- 2 teaspoon Clover Honey
INSTRUCTIONS
- To make the porridge… place your uncooked basmati rice in a high- powered blender and pulse for a few seconds to chop the grains.
- Place the rice in a saucepan and cover with 1 ¼ cups almond milk. Stir in a pinch of salt and vanilla. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a low simmer. Cover and cook for 15 minutes.
- Remove from the heat, take off the lid, and stir the rice. Pour in the remaining almond milk to warm. Let stand for 5 minutes.
- Divide the porridge between two bowls and top with slices of banana and a drizzle of clover honey.
NOTES
Honey contains fructose. Northern latitude honey (clover, raspberry, alfalfa) contain a closer ratio of fructose to glucose than tropical honey (like the honey that Monash University tested and noted as a high fodmap food). Since northern latitude honey contains a closer ratio of fructose to glucose, this improves fructose absorption and we find that many people with fructose intolerance can enjoy a small amount of northern latitude honey. Please try this and see how you do (easy enough to test out in tea, like Rooibos tea).
Guest Guru Patsy Catsos recommends to her patients and readers, to not include honey. If you were referred to GutRxGurus by Patsy, please omit honey from this recipe. We're happy to make a suitable substitution suggestion. Feel free to post a question in the forum!
