Cornmeal Breakfast Combo - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/3 cup oat bran
1/3 cup polenta or 1/3 cup coarse yellow cornmeal
1/2 - 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 cup raisins or 1/4 cup dried cranberries
2 cups water
maple syrup (optional)
molasses (optional)
cream (optional)

Preparation

Add the water to a medium size saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat.
While the water is coming to a boil, combine the oat bran, polenta, and cinnamon.
When water boils, whisk in the oat bran mixture using a wire whisk to prevent lumps.
Reduce the heat to low and simmer, uncovered for 3 to 5 minutes or until mixture is thick and creamy, stirring frequently.
Stir in the dried fruit, divide the cereal between 2 bowls and drizzle with warmed maple syrup or molasses.
May add a touch of cream if desired.
