Wheat Flakes with Milk in a Multicooker When I want a simple dessert for kids or for breakfast, I prepare wheat flakes with milk in a multicooker. The recipe is inspired by an oatmeal version, but here the wheat flakes slightly change the texture and taste. It cooks directly in the pot of the appliance, and the ingredients are added one by one, a few minutes apart. In the end, after the mixture cools down, honey is added, and it is served with cinnamon. For those who prefer a sweeter dessert, jam can also be added. Quick Info Total time: approximately 30 minutes, the duration of the chosen program, plus cooling time Preparation time: not specified; ingredients are placed directly in the pot Cooking time: 30 minutes on the Stew program Servings: the number of servings is not specified and depends on the amount of flakes used and the size of the molds Difficulty: easy Recipe type: milk dessert, suitable for kids Appliance used: multicooker, including Philips multicooker Ingredients 1-1.5 cups wheat flakes 1 liter of milk 3 tablespoons semolina 4-6 tablespoons honey 1 packet of vanilla sugar Sugar, to taste; the amount is not mentioned in the basic recipe Cinnamon, for sprinkling Jam, optional, for serving Preparation Method 1. Pour the milk into the multicooker pot. Add the sugar and vanilla sugar, then stir gently to distribute it in the milk. 2. Close the appliance and select the Stew program for 30 minutes. 3. After the first 10 minutes of cooking, add the wheat flakes. Stir to incorporate them into the milk. 4. After another 5 minutes, add the 3 tablespoons of semolina. Stir again, without needing prolonged processing. 5. Let the mixture cook for another 5-10 minutes until ready. In the original recipe, the program is set for 30 minutes, so it is good to monitor the consistency towards the end of the program. 6. When the dessert is ready, unplug the multicooker from the power source. 7. Let the mixture cool down. Honey is added after cooling, then stir gently. 8. Place the mixture into molds and sprinkle cinnamon on top. 9. Serve plain or with a little jam. Wheat flakes with milk in the multicooker have a more cohesive consistency after cooling, so they do not need to be completely firm when you turn off the appliance. The important thing is to cook both the cereal and the semolina, and the honey should be added at the end, after the mixture is no longer hot. Why I Make the Recipe Often I like that everything is prepared in the same pot and that the ingredients are added gradually, without a complicated procedure. It is a suitable recipe when I want a simple dessert, with ordinary ingredients, without baking and without many dishes to wash. The wheat flakes and semolina make the dessert more substantial than just milk with cereal. It can be placed in molds and served after cooling, and the cinnamon gives it the final taste without needing many additives. Tips Add the flakes after the first 10 minutes, not from the beginning, to respect the preparation method of the recipe. The semolina is added after another 5 minutes, that is, about 15 minutes after starting the program. The amount of flakes can be between 1 and 1.5 cups. With 1 cup, the mixture will have more milk, while with 1.5 cups it will be more substantial. The basic recipe does not specify an exact measurement for the cup, so it is good to keep the same measure for the chosen amount. Honey is added after the dessert has cooled. This way, its flavor remains better present, and you respect the original step of the recipe. Do not add cinnamon to the pot during cooking if you want to keep the preparation method presented here. It is sprinkled at the end, after portioning. Substitutions The recipe uses wheat flakes instead of oatmeal flakes. This is the substitution mentioned in the source of the recipe. No other changes are needed to prepare the dessert. If you do not want to use honey, the source does not provide an alternative, and no amount for another sweetener is indicated. Sugar is added from the beginning, but its amount is not specified in the original recipe. Variations The simplest variation is to use a different amount of wheat flakes, within the range indicated by the recipe: between 1 and 1.5 cups. Thus, the dessert can be softer or more substantial. You can also vary the way of serving. Some portions can be sprinkled only with cinnamon, while others can be served with jam. There is no need to modify the basic composition. If you prepare the dessert for kids, you can start with 4 tablespoons of honey and adjust only if necessary, considering that sugar is also added in the recipe. However, the exact amount of sugar is not mentioned in the source. Serving Ideas After cooling, the mixture is placed in individual molds and sprinkled with cinnamon. Serving with jam is also mentioned. It can be served as a dessert or as a sweet dish for both kids and adults. For a simple presentation, just the cinnamon on top is enough; the jam is added separately, according to preference. Frequently Asked Questions 1. When are the wheat flakes added? The flakes are added after the first 10 minutes from the start of the Stew program. 2. When is the semolina added? The semolina is added after another 5 minutes from the time the flakes were added, so about 15 minutes from the start of the program. 3. Why is honey added after cooling? In the original recipe, honey is added after the multicooker is unplugged and the mixture has cooled. This is the indicated step for finishing the dessert. 4. Can it be served with something other than cinnamon? Yes. The recipe also mentions jam as a serving option. Cinnamon is sprinkled on top, and jam can be added separately. 5. How many servings does it yield? The source does not specify the number of servings. This depends on how full the molds are and the amount of flakes used. Nutritional Values The values below are estimated and cannot be calculated accurately, as the type of milk, the amount of sugar, and the number of servings are not specified. Honey and jam are not included in a fixed calculation, as they can be used in different quantities. For a serving obtained by dividing the preparation into approximately 6 servings, the estimate can be about 230-300 kcal, depending on the amount of flakes, the type of milk, the sugar used, and the amount of honey. Approximately, a serving may contain: Protein: approximately 7-10 g Carbohydrates: approximately 40-55 g Fats: approximately 4-8 g Fiber: approximately 2-4 g These values are indicative. The addition of jam increases the intake of sugars and calories, and using milk with a different fat content modifies the final value. Storage and Reheating After cooling, the dessert can be stored in the refrigerator, covered. Since it contains milk, it is not recommended to leave it at room temperature for long. When cold, the mixture can thicken. It can be consumed directly after cooling or can be gently reheated before serving. If the texture becomes too dense, the dessert can be stirred after reheating. There is no need to reheat it together with the honey, as it has already been added at the end, according to the recipe. It is better to prepare an amount that you can consume in a short time, as after storage the texture is no longer exactly the same as when the dessert is freshly made.
