We are all about getting a solid brekkie, and for us that includes plenty of fibre and vitamin B-filled wholegrains. We created this moreish barley pudding with a fruity zing to help get you going in the morning.

SERVES 4–6 // COOKING TIME 1 hour

INGREDIENTS
For the barley pudding
2 cups milk
1 cup hulled barley
1½ cups water

1 tsp vanilla essence
Coconut flakes, toasted, to serve

METHOD
1. Place milk, barley, water and honey or sugar in a pot. Bring to the boil over high heat.
2. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 50 minutes, or until all liquid is absorbed and barley is tender.
