- molasses (optional)
- cream (optional)
Directions
1
Add the water to a medium size saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat.2
While the water is coming to a boil, combine the oat bran, polenta, and cinnamon.3
When water boils, whisk in the oat bran mixture using a wire whisk to prevent lumps.4
Reduce the heat to low and simmer, uncovered for 3 to 5 minutes or until mixture is thick and creamy, stirring frequently.5
Stir in the dried fruit, divide the cereal between 2 bowls and drizzle with warmed maple syrup or molasses.6

I liked this recipe just fine. It was a nice change up for a breakfast cereal. I didn't use any maple syrup or molasses, which might be why I thought it was good but not outstanding.

What a great comfort, warming food. I was looking for recipes using polenta (although I would use freshly gorund cornmeal) and wanted to try this for something different in the morning. This is quite good, although I am not a maple syrup lover, so I used some freezer jam I had made this week and it was delicious! Another great healthy food idea from Paula.

Another recipe so simple and delicious you scratch your head wondering why you hadn't come to the idea on your own. Pairing my morning staple of oats with polenta was a surefire hit - both are creamy and comforting. What really surprised me was just how well they went together with the cornmeal giving the dish a lovely sweetness that was heightened by the drizzle of maple. For the dried fruit, I used a combination of golden raisins, dried cranberries, and diced dried apricots. Will definitely keep a supply of the mix together for the future. Thanks!
