Start your morning on the trail with a warm, comforting bowl of backpacking cinnamon apple quinoa porridge that’s made from scratch and dehydrated for convenience. Nutty quinoa is simmered with sweet apples, cozy cinnamon, and a touch of natural sweetness, then carefully dried to create a lightweight, packable meal.
Just add hot water at camp to bring it back to life, with a texture that’s hearty and satisfying. It’s a wholesome, energy-boosting breakfast that feels like home, no matter how far you roam.
How To Pick Quinoa
Pick quinoa by checking for a dry, uniform color (white, red, or black) in sealed packaging or bulk bins, usually found in the rice or health food aisles. Ensure the grains are dry, not clumped, and check for organic or prewashed labels to save preparation time, as prewashed reduces bitter saponin.
Ingredient Swaps
Swap the apples with your favorite fruit.
