Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 70 grams semolina
- 500 milliliters milk
- 30 grams vanilla protein powder
- 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional, for serving)
- 20 grams chopped nuts (optional, for serving)
Instructions
In a large saucepan, combine the milk, salt, and honey or maple syrup. Heat over medium heat until it begins to simmer, stirring occasionally.
Gradually whisk in the semolina, reducing the heat to low. Continue to stir constantly to prevent lumps from forming.
Cook the semolina mixture for about 4-5 minutes, or until it thickens to a pudding-like consistency.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the vanilla protein powder and vanilla extract until thoroughly combined and smooth.
Divide the semoule au lait into serving bowls or ramekins. Let it cool at room temperature or refrigerate for a chilled version.
Before serving, optionally sprinkle with cinnamon and top with chopped nuts for added texture and flavor.
