Ingredients:

  • 2 cups water
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1 cup cream of wheat
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 3 tbsp honey
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions:

  1. Combine the water, milk, and salt in a saucepan.
  2. Place the pot over medium heat and bring to a gentle simmer. Wait until small bubbles form around the edges, but don't let it reach a rolling boil.
  3. Reduce the heat to medium low.
  4. Whisk constantly and vigorously while pouring in the Cream of Wheat in a thin, steady stream. Note: This prevents the grains from clumping.
  5. Continue whisking for 2-3 minutes until the mixture looks uniform and clump free.
  6. Lower the heat to low.
  7. Cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the porridge thickens to a velvety consistency.
  8. Remove the pot from the heat immediately.
  9. Fold in the honey, cinnamon, and vanilla extract until aromatic.
