1. Rinse Quinoa
First, rinse the quinoa under cold water using a fine-mesh sieve until the water runs clear.
2. Cook Quinoa
In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed quinoa, water, 1 cup of coconut milk, maple syrup, salt, and cinnamon stick. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and cook for about 20 minutes, until the quinoa is tender and has absorbed all the liquid.
3. Toast Almonds
While the quinoa is cooking, toast the slivered almonds in a small dry skillet over medium heat until golden and fragrant, then transfer to a plate to cool.
4. Serve Porridge
Divide the cooked quinoa porridge into four bowls, swirl the remaining coconut milk over each serving, sprinkle with toasted almonds, and if desired, add finely chopped dates.
