Atole de Vainilla

The flavor is similar to horchata with the consistency of a thin cream of wheat. It is warm, smooth, rich, creamy, flavorful, and satisfying to enjoy for breakfast or an after-dinner drink. When my son took a drink he said, “It tastes like Mexico.” I couldn’t have said it better myself. It has all the aromatic and comforting ingredients of Mexico that is so soothing.

Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 1/2 cups water
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 4 ounces piloncillo
  • 1/2 cup masa harina
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1 vanilla bean split in half lengthwise and seeds scraped
  • ground cinnamon optional

Instructions

  1. In a large saucepan bring water to a boil with the cinnamon stick and piloncillo. Remove from the heat, cover, and let the cinnamon stick steep and sugar dissolve for about 30 minutes.
  2. Remove the cinnamon stick, return water to low heat, and slowly add the masa harina, whisking until combined. Add milk and vanilla bean with seeds.
  3. Heat over medium heat just until boiling.
  4. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, whisking occasionally, about 20 minutes.
  5. Sprinkle with cinnamon and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Store leftovers in a covered container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave, adding a splash of milk or water to loosen the texture.
