Directions

1If you are using pearl barley, soak the grain overnight and rinse thoroughly before putting to the boil

2Combine barley with double the amount of water and vanilla in a small saucepan and bring to the boil. If using pearl barely add an extra ⅓- ½ cup water

3Lower heat and simmer until the water has been absorbed.

4Barley flakes only take about 7- 10 minutes to cook, sometimes less. Pearl barley can take between 30 – 50 minutes until completely soft, depending on how much grain you are using.

5Mix in blueberries, chia seeds and walnuts

6Transfer to bowl and top with a little bit of soy or almond milk and maple syrup to taste. Enjoy
