A tasty alternative from steel-cut oats. This heart-healthy barley porridge is low in sugar, high in fiber, and taste! It can also be made with pearl barley.
Ingredients
- ½ cup hulled barley
- 1 cup water
- 2 Golden Delicious apples – peeled, cored, and diced
- 2 cups water, or more if needed
- 2 teaspoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon butter
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup chopped walnuts
Directions
Step 1
Place barley in a bowl and add 1 cup water; soak for 2 hours or overnight. Drain.
Step 2
Combine drained barley, apples, 2 cups water, brown sugar, cinnamon, butter, lemon juice, nutmeg, and salt in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until barley and apples are softened and water is absorbed, adding more water if needed, about 1 hour. Remove saucepan from heat and stir walnuts into barley.
