Method

Rinse the quinoa well in a fine sieve to remove its bitter coating.
Add the quinoa, milk, cinnamon and vanilla to a saucepan and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat, watching that it does not boil over.
Reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 15 minutes, stirring every few minutes, until the quinoa is tender and creamy.
Dice the apple and roughly chop the walnuts.
Spoon into bowls and top with the apple, walnuts, Greek yogurt and maple syrup.
