Method

  • Place millet, apple juice, and water in a medium sized saucepan.

  • Be sure not to lift the lid while cooking.
  • Only check up on millet at the 20-25minute mark.
  • Remove from heat and allow to cool in a large bowl.
  • Preheat oven to 350F and line a 9x13 pan with parchment paper for easy lifting.
  • Meanwhile, combine all remaining ingredients, adding 2.5 cups of the cooked millet to the bowl.
  • Stir until combined.
