Warm Semolina Porridge with Banana and Honey

Semolina porridge is a quiet classic across Mediterranean breakfast tables, valued for how smooth and easy it is to eat once it's cooked down in warm milk. Here it's kept plain and comforting, with mashed banana stirred in for natural sweetness and a drizzle of honey rather than anything sharp or citrusy.

We used lactose-free milk to keep the porridge accessible and skipped any acidic fruit toppings, sticking instead to banana and warm cinnamon. It's the kind of breakfast that goes down easy — smooth in texture, mild in flavor, and gentle on a stomach that's sensitive to acid or spice first thing in the morning.

It takes about fifteen minutes start to finish, and leftovers can be gently rewarmed with a splash of milk if the porridge thickens too much in the fridge.
