Print recipe

Ingredients:

  • 1 packet or serving farina
  • 3/4 cup milk, plus more if needed
  • 1/2 cup cinnamon apple sauce
  • 1/2 pear, diced
  • Pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg, if available

Instructions:

  1. Cook the farina with milk according to the package directions, stirring often so it becomes smooth and creamy.
  2. When it thickens, stir in the cinnamon apple sauce and let it warm through for 30 seconds.
  3. Dice the pear into small tender pieces. If the pear is very firm, microwave it for 20 seconds to soften it slightly.
  4. Spoon the farina into a bowl and top with the pear. Add a tiny splash of milk if you like it looser.
  5. Take a moment to stir everything together at the table so the apple, pear, and warm cereal feel cozy and comforting.

Good for: A gentle, familiar breakfast that feels warm, sweet, and easy on a busy morning.

Optional: Add chopped orange segments on top for a brighter summer flavor.
