Description
Sour Cream Porridge is a creamy and tangy breakfast or dessert dish made with oats, milk, and sour cream, offering a smooth and comforting texture with a touch of sweetness.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup of quick oats (or rolled oats)
- 2 cups of whole milk (or any milk alternative)
- 1 cup of sour cream (full-fat for creaminess)
- 2 tablespoons of sugar (adjust to taste; can substitute with honey or maple syrup)
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- Optional toppings: fresh fruit, nuts, chocolate, or spices
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, combine the quick oats, whole milk, salt, and sugar. Stir well to avoid lumps.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
- Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 5–7 minutes until the oats soften and absorb the milk, stirring continuously to prevent sticking.
- Remove the pot from heat and stir in the sour cream and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly until smooth.
- Transfer the porridge to serving bowls and enjoy warm, with optional toppings if desired.
Notes
- For a dairy-free version, use plant-based milk and sour cream alternatives.
- Adjust sugar to taste or substitute with natural sweeteners like honey or maple syrup.
- Ensure oats are labeled gluten-free if needed.
- Top with fruits, nuts, or chocolate for extra texture and flavor.
