Amaranth isn't needed!
I made this with 1/2 cup of Old-Fashioned Oats and no amaranth (and 1tsp of ground cinnamon instead of a stick), and it turned out great. I suspect you could substitute any fruit you have on hand.

Breakfast to go!
I wasn't sure what amaranth was, but found I could substitute quinoa for it. I assumed it needed to be cooked quinoa, but left the oatmeal raw. The overall flavor was okay, but I think it would make a great breakfast to go.

Delicious!
I made it with half almond milk half water and it was very smooth and tasty. I love incorporating amaranth into my diet since it's high in iron and im anemic so this is definitely a must try recipe!
