Step by Step guide

Step 1

Rinse the quinoa well.

Step 2

Combine quinoa, ½ cup of water, and ½ cup of milk in a saucepan. Add ground cinnamon. Place over medium heat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat slightly and cook for another 15 minutes, stirring, until all the liquid is evaporated. Add the remaining milk, almond flakes, dried cranberries, and maple syrup. Stir and cook for a couple more minutes until thickened. Remove from heat, cover, and set aside.

Step 3

Peel the pear and remove the seeds. Cut into 8 evenly thick slices.

Step 4

Heat a skillet, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil, the pear slices, and sauté over medium heat for about 5 minutes until softened and golden. Add 1 tablespoon of maple syrup and cook the pear for another minute, constantly drizzling and coating it with the syrup. After the time is up, remove from heat.
