Cream of Wheat Original Stove Top Hot Cereal – 12-Ounce Pack, 2 1/2-Minute Cook Time

A comforting classic with modern convenience

Cream of Wheat Original is a stove-top staple that has shaped early mornings for generations. Made with ground wheat, it presents a smooth, creamy texture that feels warm and inviting as soon as you ladle it into a bowl. The same simple recipe delivers a familiar aroma—soft steam, toasty grains, and a quiet anticipation of a satisfying bite.

With two straightforward cooking options, this cereal fits both planned breakfasts and spontaneous cravings. The traditional method calls for boiling water or milk, slowly whisking in the ground wheat, and letting it simmer for 2 1/2 minutes. The result is a velvety porridge that thickens just enough to cradle a spoonful of your favorite toppings.

Nutrition and practicality you can count on

In addition to its comforting texture, Cream of Wheat Original is fat-free and yields a notable nutrient profile. It’s described as an excellent source of iron and calcium, helping to round out a morning routine with essential minerals. The product is made in the USA, reflecting a long-standing tradition of quality and care.

Three quick ways to enjoy it:

• Stove-top versatility: simmer gently, stir often, and watch the mixture transform into a glossy, spoon-worthy porridge.
• Microwave speed: loosen the cooking time for faster prep when mornings are busy.
• Customizable flavor: sway with milk or water, then top with fruit, nuts, cinnamon, or a drizzle of honey for a personal touch.
