Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups full-fat sour cream
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 3 cups whole milk
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 4 tablespoons butter (optional, for topping)
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon (optional, for topping)
- 2 teaspoons sugar (optional, for topping)
Instructions
In a medium-sized pot, heat the sour cream over medium heat until it begins to simmer. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Once the sour cream is hot and slightly liquidy, sift in the flour a little at a time, stirring constantly to incorporate it fully. The mixture will begin to thicken.
As the fat separates from the mixture, skim off the butterfat with a spoon and set it aside in a small dish. This will be used as a topping later.
Gradually add the whole milk, about 1/2 cup at a time, to the pot, stirring continuously to ensure it blends smoothly. Continue adding milk until the mixture reaches a creamy, smooth consistency.
Add the sugar and salt, stirring well to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Lower the heat and let the rømmegrøt cook for 5-10 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent lumps and sticking.
Serve hot in bowls. Drizzle with the reserved butterfat, and sprinkle cinnamon and sugar on top as desired. Enjoy!
