Ingredients

1 cup water
⅓ cup cornmeal
¼ cup whole milk
¼ cup coconut milk
3 tablespoons white sugar
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons raisins (Optional)

Directions

Combine water, cornmeal, whole milk, coconut milk, white sugar, vanilla extract, salt, nutmeg, and cinnamon in a blender; blend until smooth.
Bring mixture to a boil in a saucepan; whisk occasionally until beginning to thicken, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat when slow bubbles form. Stir frequently until as thick as you like, about 5 minutes. Add raisins.
Remove from heat, cover, and let cool before serving, about 5 minutes.
