Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup farro, rinsed
- 2 1/2 cups almond milk (or milk of choice)
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/4 cup chopped dates
- 1/4 cup maple syrup or honey
- 1 tsp ground cardamom

Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed farro, almond milk, water, chopped dates, cardamom, cinnamon, and salt. Stir well to combine.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer uncovered for 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the farro is tender and the liquid has thickened to a pudding-like consistency.
- Stir in the maple syrup or honey, adjusting the sweetness to your preference.
- Remove the pudding from the heat and let it sit for 5 minutes to thicken further.
- Serve warm in bowls, topped with chopped almonds or pistachios, shredded coconut, or an extra drizzle of maple syrup if desired.
Notes
- This pudding is customizable—use any plant-based or dairy milk you prefer.
- If you prefer a thicker consistency, simmer for a few extra minutes or add a bit more milk.
- The pudding can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated in the microwave or on the stovetop with a splash of almond milk.
