Sweet polenta with berries is a delicate and aromatic dish from Italian cuisine, where polenta is traditionally prepared as a base for many variations. Here it transforms into a morning treat or light dessert thanks to the addition of apples and berries. The creamy texture of the polenta perfectly complements the slight tartness of the fruits, creating a harmony of flavors. Butter adds a velvety touch to the dish, while powdered sugar gives it a light sweetness. Polenta with berries is an excellent choice for breakfast or cozy tea time; it warms you up and energizes you. Its simplicity makes it accessible even for beginner cooks, and the combination of milk and fruits turns ordinary porridge into an exquisite delight.
