Description
A traditional Norwegian porridge made with milk and cream, served warm with toppings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 quart whole milk
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted (for serving)
- Ground cinnamon (for serving)
- Additional sugar (for serving)
Instructions
- Warm the milk and cream in a heavy-bottomed saucepan, heating the whole milk and heavy cream over medium-low heat until just steaming. Don’t let it come to a boil — gentle warmth is your friend here.
- Whisk in the flour slowly, adding the flour while whisking constantly to avoid lumps. The mixture will begin to thicken quickly. Keep whisking to form a smooth, thick paste-like consistency.
- Add sugar and salt. The Rommegrot should now resemble a rich pudding. Keep cooking and stirring for about 5–8 minutes, letting the mixture thicken slightly more and the flavors meld.
- Serve warm with toppings. Pour the hot Rommegrot into serving bowls. Drizzle each portion with melted butter and sprinkle generously with ground cinnamon and sugar.
Notes
- Rommegrøt is traditionally served on special occasions in Norway.
- Ensure to whisk continuously to achieve the desired consistency without lumps.
