This morning I finally found a decent substitute for oatmeal. I actually purchased the box of cream of buckwheat last January, but it took me until this morning to try it. Turns out it satisfies my craving for maple oatmeal.
I followed directions on the box. :) I used coconut milk and almond milk (in place of milk or water). After cooking my buckwheat for the recommended time, I took it off the stove, stirred in a little vanilla extract, a dash of salt, a touch of agave, a swirl of pure maple syrup, and sprinkled some cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice on top. Perfect!
