There’s nothing better on a cold winter night than a nice cup of warm atole. If you don’t know what atole is, it’s a traditional Mexican beverage made with corn flour combined with milk or water, and added flavors. One of the easiest and quickest recipes to make is with oatmeal. Cinnamon sticks give it a flavor like no other. Since this time I wanted to make it for the kids, I decided to add Dora The Explorer™ corn puffs cereal as the base. I hope you enjoy it!
