Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup semolina flour
  • 2 tbsp. sugar or to taste
  • 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tbsp. of avocado oil
  • 1 pinch of salt
  • Toppins: Cinnamon sugar and frozen mixed berries.

Instructions
 

  • Add dry ingredients. Add semolina flour, sugar, and salt into a saucepan over medium-high heat.
  • Add almond milk. Whisk to combine the dry ingredients with almond milk and bring it to a gentle simmer. Whisk continuously to prevent a lump, so it doesn’t stick to the bottom of the pan.
  • Add oil and vanilla. When the Griessbrei starts to thicken, add oil and vanilla extract.
  • Cook. Lower the heat and stir around and let it cook until thicken like a porridge.
  • Serve it. Remove it from the heat and fill it into a bowl to set. You may serve it warm or chilled with your favorite toppings. Enjoy!

Notes

Tips
  • Do not overcook it. It only takes 5 minutes from start to finish and it thickens more as cools down.
  • Whisk constantly. Whisk continuously to prevent a lump, so it doesn’t stick to the bottom of the pan.
  • Taste-test it. Taste to adjust flavor and sweetness.
  • Use unsweetened plant-based milk. This way you can control how much sweetness you want to add to Griessbrei.
Substitutions and variations to this recipe
  • Use other flavorings and extracts. Add citrus zest such as one orange or lemon zest.
  • Make the chocolate version of Griessbrei. Add about 1 Tbsp of cocoa powder to the recipe.
  • Use other unsweetened plant-based milk. Coconut milk, soy milk, rice milk, or oat milk.
  • Other toppings ideas:
  • Butter
  • Cocoa powder
  • Heavy cream
  • Chopped nuts or seeds
  • Jam
  • Seasonal fruits

  • For the non-vegan version:
  • Use honey as a sweetener
  • Use dairy milk and dairy butter
  • Add egg in. Cook Griessbrei until all liquid is absorbed. Add yolk and then fold whisked white egg into it and cook for additional 3 minutes on low heat.
  • You can omit the sugar and make Griessbrei savory and serve it with eggs and sausages for breakfast.
Equipment
  • Stainless steel saucepan

Storage and reheat
  • Store it in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Serve it chilled or heat it in a microwave for 30 seconds.
  • You can also fry the leftover semolina with butter. Cut it into small cubes and fry until it is crispy and brown on both sides.
How to serve it
  • Serve it for breakfast, dessert, or snack. Some even serve It as a light sweet lunch or dinner.
  • Omit sugar and make semolina pudding savory and served it with eggs or sausage.
