Instructions

1. Add the water to a sauce pan and bring to a boil on the stovetop.

2. Gradually pour in the Cream of Wheat and whisk the mixture as you add it. Continue whisking until it is all combined.

3. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and allow it to cook without a lid for about two minutes.

4. Continue to whisk the cereal to keep it from sticking to the pan. Turn off the stove once the cereal reaches desired consistency. Ideally the cereal should be thick enough to hold its form when scooped out with a spoon similar to a porridge or oatmeal, but some people prefer it a thinner and soupy or thicker and lumpy.

5. Pour the cream of wheat in a bowl and top it with a little butter, cinnamon and brown sugar. Serve the cereal hot.
