Atole (Cornmeal Drink)
1/2 cup Masa Harina®
5 cups milk
4 tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon or 1 stick cinnamon, finely slivered
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Put the Masa Harina® in a bowl and whisk in the milk, little by little. Pour the milk mixture into a pot and add the brown sugar and cinnamon. Bring to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring constantly, to keep it from becoming lumpy. Stir in the vanilla extract. Serve in mugs.
