Semolina Cinnamon 3-Ingredients (Printable Recipe Version)

Silky semolina with cinnamon, comes together fast, brings back childhood days, and you can change it up whenever.

# Ingredients You’ll Need:

→ Basic Items

01 - 1-2 teaspoons cinnamon, Ceylon if you can get it
02 - A pinch of salt
03 - 3-4 tablespoons sugar, honey, or maple syrup
04 - 100 g fine semolina (wheat)
05 - 1 liter whole milk or a plant-based milk of your choice

→ Optional Extras

06 - A handful of chopped dried fruit or nuts
07 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract or the inside of a vanilla pod

# Steps to Make It:

01 - Take the pot off the heat. Stir in salt and sugar. Pour into bowls, sprinkle cinnamon all over, and toss on nuts or dried fruit if that's your thing.
02 - Keep stirring now and then. Let it bubble away for about 5 to 7 minutes over low heat, until it gets as thick as you want. It'll firm up a bit more as it cools off.
03 - Turn down the heat a little. With a whisk, slowly sprinkle the semolina into the hot milk while whisking non-stop. That keeps lumpy bits away.
04 - Pour milk into a medium pot with a heavy bottom. Warm it slowly over medium heat until you see tiny bubbles at the edge. If you want, add the vanilla now.
05 - Measure out all your ingredients and set them out. Having things handy will make everything go smoother while you cook.

# Extra Information:

01 - You can use soy, oat, or almond milk if you want it lactose-free. Good quality milk and semolina make a big difference. Organic stuff packs more flavor.
02 - Sprinkling in the semolina a bit at a time and stirring the whole time is the secret to making it extra creamy.
03 - Throwing cinnamon on top right after serving brings out the flavor best.
