Ingredients

1 cup Quaker® Old Fashioned - Standard Grits, uncooked
2 cups water
2 cups low fat milk
3/4 cup fresh blackberries
1 tbsp brown sugar
2 tbsp orange zest, divided
3 tbsp orange juice, divided
1/4 cup buttermilk

Cooking Instructions

In a medium saucepan, bring water and milk to a boil. Whisk in grits, then cover, reduce heat to low and simmer. Uncover and stir every few minutes until grits are thickened and creamy, about 15-20 minutes.
While grits are cooking, In small saucepan combine blackberries, brown sugar, 1 tablespoon orange zest and 2 tablespoons orange juice. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, stirring occasionally until blackberries have softened, about 5-10 min. Slightly mash. Set aside.
When grits have finished cooking add buttermilk and remaining 1 tablespoon orange juice and stir. Divide among bowls and top with the blackberry compote, swirling it gently into the grits to create a marbled look, without fully mixing ingredients. Sprinkle with remaining orange zest. Serve immediately.
Enjoy!
