Porridge series: Cremita de Maiz

#easyfoodcreations #healthyeating #porridge

We eat a lot of oatmeal for breakfast so this time I decided to  put some spin on our staple. In many countries the most common porridge is made from cornmeal (maiz).
This porrage cooks relatively quickly and has a pretty smooth consistency.

Ingredients:
1.5 c milk (you can used a mix of water and milk, I often do that)
1 tsp butter (optional)
1/3 c cornmeal 
1 tsp cinnamon 
0.5 tsp vanilla powder 
0.25 tsp grated nutmeg
2 tbsp honey or raw sugar 
Pinch of salt

1. Put milk, butter, cornmeal, spices (and sugar if you are using it) in the pan on a medium heat and cook stirring until it starts boiling. Then lower the heat to low high (2.5-2.8) stirr occasionally. It should be done in about 20 minutes.
2. Let it rest for a minute or two, stir in more milk to make your desired consistency, add honey.
3. Top your porrage with grated apple, flax seeds, pumpkin seeds, and raisins. 
4. Enjoy!
