Rommagrout, also known as Danish butter porridge, is a traditional Scandinavian breakfast staple made with butter, flour, and milk. Believed to have originated in the 18th century, it was once considered a poor man's meal and served as a substitute for meat soup or porridge. Nowadays, it is enjoyed by everyone, regardless of social status. This rich and flavorful porridge warms you up from the inside out and is the perfect breakfast for a chilly winter day.

Instructions

1.	In a large pot, melt the butter over low heat.
2.	Gradually add in the flour, stirring constantly until there are no lumps left.
3.	Slowly pour in the milk while continuing to stir.
4.	Add the salt and keep stirring until the porridge thickens and comes to a boil.
5.	Once the porridge has reached the desired consistency, remove from heat and transfer to serving bowls.
6.	Top each bowl with a sprinkle of cinnamon, sugar, and a pat of butter before serving.
