Atol De Elote Recipe

Directions to Prepare Atol de Elote

   Blend the Corn

   In a blender, combine the fresh corn kernels and 1 cup of water. Blend until smooth.

2. 2

   Strain the Mixture

   Strain the blended corn mixture through a fine mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a large pot to extract the corn milk. Discard the solids.

   Add Remaining Ingredients

   To the pot with the corn milk, add the remaining 3 cups of water, milk, sugar, cinnamon stick, vanilla extract, and salt. Stir well to combine.

   Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently until it begins to thicken and comes to a gentle boil. This should take about 10-15 minutes.

   Serve

   Remove from heat, discard the cinnamon stick, and serve warm in bowls. Optionally, sprinkle with a little more cinnamon on top.
