Ingredients
- 100 g semolina
- 500 ml whole milk
- 1 piece or teaspoon vanilla pod or extract
- 2 tablespoons granulated stevia or preferred sugar substitute
- 20 g unsalted butter
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch pinch of salt
Directions
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, pour the whole milk. If using a vanilla pod, slit it open and scrape the seeds into the milk. Add the pod as well. If using vanilla extract, add it directly to the milk.
Step 2
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the milk to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent a skin from forming on the milk's surface.
Step 3
Once the milk reaches a simmer, remove the vanilla pod if using one. Gradually sprinkle the semolina into the milk while continuously stirring to avoid any lumps.
Step 4
Add the pinch of salt and stir well. Continue to cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens. This should take about 10 minutes.
Step 5
Once thickened to your desired consistency, stir in the granulated stevia (or your choice of sugar substitute) and the unsalted butter. Mix until the butter melts and the sweetener is thoroughly incorporated.
Step 6
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the semoule au lait sit for a couple of minutes. This allows it to set slightly and enhances the flavors.
Step 7
Serve the semoule au lait warm, sprinkled with ground cinnamon. Optionally, you can garnish with fresh berries or a sprinkle of nuts for added texture and flavor.
