The title says it short, this says it all, I want hot cereals! Breakfast, lunch, dinner, sweet, savory, wheat, oats, rice, you name it I want it! Give me your best cereal grain recipes!
I’ll start with a old family classic! cracked wheat cooked with brown sugar, cinnamon, vanilla, golden raisins and chopped pecans!
I usually just toss stuff together till it tastes good but roughly it’s one cup cracked wheat to three cups boiling water and a pinch of salt. simmer in a saucepan for about 20 minutes adding cinnamon, vanilla, golden raisins, pecans, brown sugar, and milk about 5 minutes before the end to let things heat up and soften and blend. I like golden raisins but craisins, regular raisins, dried dates, dried apricots or whatever fruits you want, it’s all good. Awesome on a cold morning with a nice hot chai.
Not sure if this counts, it is not really a recipe, but I put buttermilk on my cooked oatmeal. I use the thick rolled kind, microwaved 1 to 1 oats and water, 50% for 5 minutes (so it just sort of expands but does not get creamy) then top with buttermilk and maybe dried cranberries. Might be even better to toast the oats first! Just occurred to me. Mmmmmmm.
