With a touch of sweetness and plenty of piquant fruits, this comforting breakfast porridge is just right.
Fill a large pot with water; cover and bring to a boil. Add wheat berries and return to a boil. Cook until grains are al dente, about 1 hour. Drain.
Meanwhile, bring 4 cups water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add salt and oats and cook, stirring, until beginning to thicken, about 3 minutes. Reduce heat to medium low and simmer until almost all liquid is absorbed, about 30 minutes. Add 1/2 cup milk along with molasses, honey, cinnamon, and drained wheat berries. Cook, stirring constantly, until heated through and thick, about 5 minutes.
Divide porridge among shallow bowls and pour warm milk over top. Sprinkle with dried fruits and toasted nuts, dividing evenly, and serve immediately.
