{serves 4 people 👦🏼👧🏻👦👧🏽 [unless you're selfish or starving, then have it all to yo self👌]}

What you'll need 🤔:

• barley porridge
- 2 1/2 cups whole milk🥛🐄
- 1 cup barley flakes
- 2 tablespoons light brown sugar 😋
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- kosher salt

• toppings
- 1 pint raspberries
- 1 tablespoon light brown sugar 💖
- 1/2 granny smith apple, cut into matchsticks 🍏+🔪
- 2 tablespoons roasted pistachios, chopped 🥜+🔪
- 4 teaspoons chia seeds, covered in 1 tablespoon water (recommended)
- 1/4 cup whole milk🥛🐄
- ground cinnamon, for sprinkling

How long it takes ⏱...
25 minutes max.

How you're gonna do this 👩🏽‍🍳...

Step One:

• for the barley porridge: Gently bring the milk 🥛🐄 and barley flakes to a boil over medium heat 🔥 in a medium saucepan.

• reduce the heat 🔥 to a simmer, then cover and cook until the milk 🥛🐄 is almost absorbed and the barley is super soft and still a bit creamy (15 minutes)

• stir in the sugar, butter and 1/2 teaspoon salt.

Step Two:

• for the toppings: meanwhile, smash 🔨 the raspberries (like you're gonna smash that vote and smash that follow on my profile), with the sugar in a small bowl with a fork 🍴.

Step Three:

• divide ÷ the porridge among 4 bowls. 

• working around the edges of the bowls, make neat piles of the toppings, placing a quarter of the crushed raspberries, apple sticks 🍏, pistachios 🥜 and chia seeds in each bowl.

• drizzle each with 1 tablespoon milk 🥛🐄 and sprinkle with some cinnamon to finish.

• you and whomever you share it with can now enjoy! (unless you're eating 4 bowls of porridge to yourself, you do you boo) Great work chef!
