Pumpkin Hot Cereal
By scottsdalejulie
none
- then in a bowl I mixed:
- LC Hot Pumpkin Cereal!
- ok so I kinda just tweeked another recepie on here to make this.. BUT for all my fellow pumpkin lovers, this stuff is AMAZING (to me and family anyway lol)
- its a cross between cream of wheat, and cottage cheese in consistency..
- ok this is how I made it..
- in a small soup pot (think like the size that holds one can of soup)
- I put a tablespoon of coconut oil and butter. (you could use just butter I use both for the health benefits)
- 1T heavy whipping cream
- 2 HEAPING TABLESPOONS of canned pumpkin (not pumpkin pie mix)
- couple of sprinkles of nutmeg and cinnamon
- dribble of vanilla extract.
- you could either now add sugar free syrup (caramel, vanilla, and cinnamon dolce are very good) or splenda or stevia to make it a little sweeter..
- then after thats all wisked together wisk in :
- 2 eggs
- I wisked that very well together untill it looked like pumpkin pie filling raw..
- then heated up the pot untill butter was melted.
- I think the wisk is a huge key to this becuase it covers so much area in the small pot, and when wisking fast you get just the right texture, Vs using a fork or a spatula..
- Its about done when it looks like very thick cottage cheese and it starts to stick to itself..
- I then poured this in a bowl, topped it with another sprinkle of nutmeg and cinnamon, 2 T heavy whipping cream, and a little squirt of sugar free maple syrup...
- ENJOY! this is amazing imo..
- Very Very Very filling!
- this will be great on cold snowey days
