Soak barley overnight for best results. Bring water and barley to a boil, lower heat and cook until water is absorbed - about 30 minutes. |
| 2 |
When the barley has cooled, combine with other ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth. Add more liquid for a creamier consistency. Adjust amounts of stevia if using maple syrup. |

| Cooking Tips |
| Cooked as a grain, barley requires 2 times water. In order to achieve a pudding consistency, it needs to be cooked with more water. |
| For rice pudding, substitute a combination of short grain brown rice and sweet brown rice. |
