I’ve never had polenta, sweet or unsweet, but this version seems very similar to cream of wheat, which my family makes sweetened with sugar and cinnamon and it’s very good. This looks even better! I’ll have to visit my local Italian market and give it a try :].

I saw this on Tastestopping (isn’t it a great idea!?) I love polenta, and eat it all kinds of ways. This looks so yummy!

I clicked through from TasteStopping for this BEAUTIFUL dish (are those other sites crazy?!) and it looks wonderful. I remember seeing an episode of Mario Batali’s travels, years, ago, and he showed how Italians make breakfast polenta, and I thought at the time, hmmm, that sounds good and then forgot about it. Your post reminded me. I shall make this very soon.

I just made it and it is delicious!

When I was a child my grandmother used to make me something like that but with white sugar, as she hasn’t brown, and without cinnamon and vanilla but with fresh butter from her cows!
I think this recipe is a very nice alternative to avoid butter because cinnamon and vanilla gives it taste, as butter used to give in my grandmother’s recipe!

Also, from a northern Italian family grew up with Polenta. While Grandma always first served it w/ some sort of red sauce, she always saved enough in a pyrex loaf pan and pan-fried it in the morning for breakfast with butter and jam or syrup- still LOVE it. It is truly the only reason I ever make it- so I can have leftovers

This is exactly how we ate our Farina (Cream of Wheat) for breakfast as a child! I feel a wave of nostalgia coming on……

I don’t think I’ve ever used polenta. Maybe its time I try. anything with brown sugar, vanilla and blueberries has to be good

Wow good timing, I have just bought a kg bag of fine grained polenta (for 1 recipe) and need some good ideas of what to do with the other 90%!!

This sounds like it has Sunday breakfast written all over it! Thanks for the recipe.

Thank you thank you thank you.
Found a link to you at http://www.seriouseats.com/2009/07/in-great-ideas-breakfast-polenta-cereal-brown-sugar-vanilla.html
I immediately rushed to the kitchen to make this dish.
It perfectly replicated a dish my Mum used to make. Check out my blog for more info

I’ve never seen polenta in sweet form. I’ll definitely have to give it a try. You can’t really go wrong with cinnamon and brown sugar.

Years and years (and YEARS!) ago, when I was in flight attendant training in Atlanta, I cringed when girls ordered grits for breakfast. I’d never heard of such a thing.

I LOVE polenta now and never thought of it for breakfast or SWEET! Brilliant!

I love your story! That polenta looks great! I never ate it that way but my grandmother used to make me farina like that. I think it’s very similar. I could go for some of that right now. It’s freeezing this morning in my office!
