Ingredients
For the Porridge
- 1 quart whole milk Heat to 195°F

For Serving
- Cinnamon-sugar For topping
- Additional melted butter For drizzling over the top
Instructions
Preparation
- Set a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat and heat 1 quart of whole milk to 195°F, stirring almost continuously to prevent burning.
- While the milk heats, whisk together ¾ cup of flour, ¼ cup of sugar, and ⅛ teaspoon of salt in a small bowl and set aside.
- In another small saucepan, gently melt ½ cup of salted butter over medium heat and turn off the heat once melted.
Cooking
- Once the milk reaches 195°F, stir the flour mixture into the melted butter to create a thick paste.
- Add this paste to the heated milk, stirring constantly until the mixture starts to boil.
- Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring often until smooth and thick.
Serving
- Remove the saucepan from heat, spoon the warm porridge into individual bowls, drizzle melted butter over the top, and sprinkle generously with cinnamon-sugar.
Notes
For a hearty meal, serve with bread or pastries. Can be topped with fresh fruits, nuts, or maple syrup for extra flavor.
