Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to make this delicious semolina flour pudding with cinnamon and honey:
- 1 cup semolina flour
- 2 cups milk
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Step-by-Step Instructions
Now that we have our ingredients, let’s move on to the fun part – making the semolina flour pudding with cinnamon and honey! Here’s what you need to do:
- In a medium saucepan, combine the milk, sugar, and salt. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved and the milk is hot but not boiling.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the semolina flour and a splash of the hot milk to make a smooth paste. This will help prevent lumps from forming in the pudding.
- Gradually add the semolina flour paste to the saucepan with the milk, whisking constantly to prevent lumps.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 10-15 minutes, or until the pudding has thickened and the semolina flour is cooked.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the cinnamon, honey, and butter until the butter has melted and the honey is well combined.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
- Pour the pudding into individual serving cups or a large serving dish.
- Allow the pudding to cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
Chilling and Serving
Once the pudding has chilled, it’s ready to serve. You can serve it as is, or top it with your favorite fruits or nuts. I like to top mine with a sprinkle of cinnamon and a drizzle of honey – it’s the perfect way to end a meal.
