Preparation:

Step 1
• Barley porridge: Combine the milk and barley flakes in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat, cover, and simmer until almost all the milk has been absorbed and the barley flakes have softened and become creamy, about 15 minutes. Stir in the sugar, butter, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
Step 2
• Toppings: Meanwhile, in a small bowl, lightly mash the raspberries and sugar with a fork.
  
  Divide the porridge among 4 bowls. Place a quarter of each crushed raspberries, apple slices, pistachios, and chia seeds in neat circles on top of the porridge. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of milk and sprinkle with cinnamon.
