Ingredients

  • 4 cups Water
  • 380 g Coconut Milk
  • 1 cup Fine Yellow Cornmeal
  • 1½ tsp Vanilla Extract
  • ½ tsp Ground Cinnamon
  • ½ tsp Ground Nutmeg
  • ¼ tsp Ground Allspice

  2. Meanwhile, add 1 cup cornmeal and 1 ½ cup water to a large mixing cup and whisk until smooth.
  3. Once the pot begins to boil, whisk in cornmeal mixture and continue to whisk for about 1 minute, ensuring there are no lumps. Reduce heat to low and cover with a tight fitting lid.
