Ingredients

  • 2 cups Bluebird Grain Farms Cracked Farro Porridge
  • 2 1/2 cups whole milk
  • 2 1/2 cups half and half
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon nutmug
  • 1/2 cup apricots dried
  • 1/2 cup dates dried
  • 1/2 cup cranberries dried

Methods

  • Place cracked farro, milk, half and half, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and a pinch of salt in a saucepan. 
  • Bring pudding to a boil then lower temperature to a simmer and stir frequently with a wooden spoon. Cook for roughly 20-25 minutes. We are looking for a consistency where a spoon is just able to stand up in the pudding.
  • Once this consistency is reached, remove pudding from the stove. You can choose to blend in dates, apricots and cranberries and serve warm or at room temperature.
  • To store, let pudding cool, covered for up to 15 minutes then press plastic wrap directly on surface of the pudding and refrigerate for up to 2 days.
  • Top with dates, apricots and cranberries just before serving. This can be an extra special breakfast or served as a dessert.
