Salted Caramel Banana Cornmeal Porridge

This indulgent twist on classic Jamaican cornmeal porridge swirls a quick homemade salted caramel sauce into the creamy cornmeal base. Topped with golden, pan-fried banana slices, it transforms a humble breakfast staple into a decadent morning treat that remains easy to prepare.

Ingredients

1 cup fine yellow cornmeal
3 cups water
1 can (13.5 oz) coconut milk
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons salted butter
2 ripe bananas, sliced
2 tablespoons brown sugar

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a mixing bowl, whisk the fine cornmeal with 1 cup of the water until completely smooth to ensure there are no lumps.

  2. 2

    In a medium pot, bring the remaining 2 cups of water and the coconut milk to a gentle boil over medium-high heat.

  3. 3

    Reduce the heat to low and slowly pour in the cornmeal mixture while whisking constantly to prevent clumping.

  4. 4

    Stir in half of the salt (1/4 tsp), the cinnamon, and the nutmeg. Cover the pot and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring every few minutes so the bottom does not burn.

  5. 5

    While the porridge cooks, melt the salted butter in a small skillet over medium heat.

  6. 6

    Add the sliced bananas, brown sugar, and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon of salt to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the bananas are caramelized and a syrup forms.

  7. 7

    Once the porridge is thick and smooth, stir in the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract. Cook for another 2 minutes to heat through.

  8. 8

    Ladle the warm porridge into bowls and top generously with the salted caramel bananas and syrup.
