Creamy Maize Porridge with Cinnamon and Honey (Gluten-Free)
A comforting and naturally gluten-free Maize Porridge infused with warm cinnamon and sweetened with honey. A simple, yet delicious, South African-inspired breakfast.
Ingredients
- 1 cup Maize Meal (Medium Ground)
- 3 cups Milk (or Dairy-Free Alternative)
- 1 cup Water
- 1 tsp Cinnamon
- 2-4 tbsp Honey
- 0.25 tsp Salt
Instructions
- 1In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, combine the 3 cups of milk, 1 cup of water, and 0.25 teaspoon of salt. Heat over medium heat until the mixture just begins to simmer, about 175°F (80°C).
- 2While whisking constantly, slowly pour in the 1 cup of maize meal. Continue whisking until the mixture is smooth and no lumps remain.
- 3Reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let the porridge simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. The porridge is ready when it has thickened to a creamy consistency.
- 4Remove the pot from the heat. Stir in the 1 teaspoon of cinnamon and 2 to 4 tablespoons of honey until well combined. Taste and add more honey if desired.
- 5Serve the creamy maize porridge warm.
