Cook quinoa: Place milk and rinsed quinoa into a small saucepan and bring to a boil.
Combine ingredients: Add cinnamon and vanilla.
Reduce heat: Reduce to a simmer and cook about 15 minutes, or until all liquid is absorbed. Watch the pot carefully and stir often because it has a tendency to want to boil over.
Add toppings and serve: When ready to eat, place a portion of the quinoa into a bowl, drizzle with maple syrup and top with chia seeds, raisins and nut butter.
Notes
Milk: I prefer unsweetened almond milk, but coconut milk or oat milk would also be delicious. Regular cow's milk works too.
Chia seeds: Ground flaxseed works great too.
Raisins: I like the cinnamon raisin combo, but any dried fruit will work.
Nut butter: either almond or peanut butter is delicious, but if you can't do nuts sunflower seed butter works too
